NO HEAVY LIFTING REQUIRED!
The Food Brigade Inc. needs volunteers to sort and bag produce, perishable food items, and bread for distribution to local area residents in need.
Our grocery bag preparation takes place on Wednesday, September 22, 2021 at Calvary United Methodist Church, 185 W. Madison Avenue, Dumont. Volunteers are needed from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
In addition to signing up for a slot here at BergenVolunteers.org, you must register as one of our volunteers at https://foodbrigade.org/volunteer - this is required by our insurance carrier.
Anyone who wishes to volunteer with us must be fully vaccinated and must provide a copy of their COVID-19 Vaccination Card prior to the day of the event - NO EXCEPTIONS.
All volunteers must wear face masks. Face masks must be worn over the mouth AND nose and not removed at any time. Volunteers must practice social distancing to the greatest extent possible.
PLEASE NOTE: If you receive an automated email notification through this platform stating that the "need" has "ended", please do not think that means we no longer need you to volunteer! You are still very much needed; please disregard that notification!
In the event of inclement weather, please check with The Food Brigade to confirm that the food distribution operation will still occur - call or text us at 201-614-4414.
And thank you for joining us in the fight against hunger and food insecurity!
