SVdP thanks you for all your help and support!

All volunteers will participate in the COVID-19 (Novel Coronavirus) Screening Questions before volunteering. If the volunteer shows signs of COVID-19, they will not be allowed to volunteer.

Questions:

  • Have you traveled internationally to China Iran, South Korea, Italy or Japan in the last month?
  • Have you been in contact with someone who is sick?
  • Do you currently have a cough or a fever?
  • SVdP Georgetown Food Bank Current Procedure:

    • Our current procedure requires no neighbors will enter the Food Bank.
    • A desk will be set up in front of the main doors to the Food Bank, this will be the new check-in area.
    • The person running the front desk will wear gloves, as all volunteers are required. If volunteers want to bring their own masks, they are welcome to.
    • Without actually entering the building, the neighbors will approach the check in station.
    • Volunteers and neighbors will continue being at least 6 feet apart.
    • The neighbor will be able to request clothing upon check-in and the volunteer will find the item for them.
    • Once registered, the neighbor will walk over to the loading dock area where they will receive a prepackaged bag or box of food. Volunteers will continue to wear gloves during the entire procedure.
