Food Distribution & Drive Thru Prep

Our drive-thru distribution will be CLOSED during the Christmas and New Year's holidays. We will return on January 6th, 2024!
Got lots of energy and looking for where you jump in and help out? Look no further! South Sacramento Christian Center is still currently distributing food every week and seeking volunteers to help us prepare groceries. If you are interested in helping in any of the areas listed below, please look at the task descriptions and choose from any of the dates and times that work best for you. Be sure to leave your contact information so someone can respond to your inquiry as soon as possible. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you soon! (Updated December 14, 2023).
As a volunteer in the food distribution center, your duties on Fridays will include (1) assembling bags (or boxes) of groceries, (2) light lifting (up to 10 lbs), (3) cleanup (sweeping, cleaning/sanitizing frequently used areas), and recycling (cardboard boxes). During your shift, you may be asked to assist in any of the areas mentioned so being flexible is preferred.
On Saturday morning, you may be asked to assist with: (1) controlling the flow of traffic in the drive-thru (2) putting groceries in people's cars for them when they pull up (3) making more grocery bags (or boxes), and (4) resupplying/runner (keeping the drive-thru stocked with inventory)
NOTE: We have lifted our mandate on wearing masks and it is no longer required. However, masks will be made available to you if you still wish to wear one and, you will still be asked to wear disposable gloves when handling food.
STAY HEALTHY: If you are feeling ill or under the weather, we kindly ask that you reconsider volunteering and stay home. But feel free to contact us again once you are feeling better.
Important: Due to the stay-home orders being lifted, we no longer provide delivery service and we are no longer recruiting delivery drivers (Updated 09/24/2022)
