About this Opportunity

Our volunteers recover healthy meals from commercial donor cafeterias and deliver them to specified nearby non-profit organizations. Every meal saved stays out of the landfill, helping the environment, while also nourishing our community in need.

We are looking for volunteers to rescue and transport food on Wednesday afternoons at approximately 2:30 p.m. and Friday afternoons at approximately 1:30 from one location in Morristown to another in Morristown.

The volunteer role would involve:

  • Picking up meals from our donor cafeteria at Novartis in East Hanover, and
  • Delivering these meals to our non-profit community partner, Market Street Mission, in Morristown.

Each volunteer task will take approximately one hour including travel time between donor and recipient. Pick-up and delivery times will be on a week day (not weekends) and can be anywhere from early morning to mid afternoon, depending on the donor. We require volunteers to drive their own car. We welcome regular participation but will work with your schedule. Insulated bags will be provided to carry food donations.
