About this Opportunity

Volunteers at MICA's Family Development office primarily help with the food pantry - everything from receiving and tracking donations to sorting and packing them into food boxes ready for different sized families to pick up. Some volunteers also help at the front desk with answering the phone, greeting visitors, scheduling appointments,giving out food boxes,and helping connect families with the appropriate staff person for their question. Volunteers come in at a regular time on an ongoing basis - usually an hour or so per week on the same day/time, but some volunteers come multiple days per week or stay for longer if their schedule allows.
