Every last Sunday of the month, a group of up to 12 people are needed to volunteer at Arlington Food Assistance Center (AFAC). AFAC provides food assistance to the 2,400 families in Arlington who are suffering from food insecurity. Sign up using link above:
Tasks will vary month to month, but typically include bagging dry goods or produce, creating soup or bean mixes and sorting canned goods and donations. Work is not strenuous but prepare to stand for the full shift and we need a few people who can lift crates that can weigh 20 – 30 pounds. Kids are welcome. AFAC prefers 14 or older but feel free bring your children as long they can stand on their feet and work side-by-side with you.
A few notes regarding proper dress for the warehouse.
1. Hats or other head coverings are required. AFAC will supply hair nets if needed
2. Closed-toed shoes (no flip flops or sandals)
3. Dress in layers as the warehouse can be drafty
