CWRU Community Pantry Volunteering (Friday 2-4 p.m.)

Site Details: The CWRU Community Pantry offers free resources such as perishable and shelf stable food items, hygiene products, cleaning products, and clothing. Open to all students, faculty, staff, and community members.

Service Details: Volunteers will assist the Community Pantry in unloading deliveries from Greater Cleveland Food Bank. Volunteers will unbox thousands of pounds of food, sort the food, provide our Graduate Assistant with the proper expiration dates and inventory numbers for tracking, and then shelve items. Please note: closed-toe/closed-heel shoes (no sandals, clogs, or flip flops) are required. The project may also include lifting boxes and standing on your feet for the duration of the service.

When + Where: Registered volunteers will meet at the CWRU Community Pantry at the service start time.
