About this Opportunity

AgeSpan's mission is to ensure everyone’s choice to lead fulfilling lives as they age.

The Mobile Market is a free distribution of healthy groceries for older adults in partnership with AgeSpan, Takeda, and Greater Boston Food Bank. Volunteer responsibilities include unloading the food from the palettes, setting up the food station, help with distribution, and clean up. Volunteers will be asked to stand for a majority of the 3-5 hour session. Some volunteers will be asked to lift heavy boxes of food from the truck.

If volunteers are bilingual in Spanish it would be beneficial but certainly is not a requirement!

MBTA Accessibility: 1.3 Miles from Lawrence MBTA Station on the Commuter Rail

At Boston Cares, we recognize that diversity, equity, and inclusion are fundamental values that guide our mission and work. Boston Cares is committed to creating a community where everyone is valued, respected, and can come and participate as their authentic selves. We expect that all volunteers and partners join us in promoting a safe and supportive space for everyone.
