Delivery Volunteers
Welcome to Leftovers! Our Rescue Food volunteers transport unsellable but still edible food from donors directly to service agencies. Rescuing food can be as convenient as stopping off at a local business on your way home. Or challenge yourself to learn more about the city you live in with a route that’s out of your normal area! Either way, you’re getting good food to the people who need it most.
Sign up in the Food Rescue app and select your city to see what opportunities are currently available. Then choose the opportunity with the time, date, and location(s) that work best for you, and you’re ready to prevent good food from being wasted!
Volunteer Duties
- Pick up donations from select donors
- Weigh and assess the quality and storage of the donations
- Deliver donations to selected agency
Requirements
- We ask that our volunteers have a valid drivers license, access to a personal vehicle and a mobile phone to access the app.
