Over the years, WVCS has developed relationships with local grocery stores to provide clients with fresh produce and bread, things that many typical food pantries cannot provide. In order to provide these goods to clients, we need people to help us pick up these donated items and bring them into the food pantry.

We are looking for volunteers to pick up donations from local grocery stories (using our company van or personal vehicle) and then deliver the goods to WVCS. This is a great opportunity for volunteers that like to get moving early in the morning or the afternoon, but might have limited time to volunteer.

Available shifts include:
Mondays @ 8:30AM-9:30AM
Mondays @ 9:00AM-10:00AM
Tuesdays @ 8:30AM-9:30AM
Wednesdays @ 8:00AM-9:00AM
Fridays @ 8:00AM-9:00AM

Substitute volunteers always needed!
