25-26 Gonzaga Univ. Campus Kitchens Community Outreach Coor

This is an AmeriCorps/Washington Service Corps national service position. It is contingent on funding and open until filled. Gonzaga University's Center for Community Engagement (CCE) works to address food insecurity. We partner with ZagDining by Sodexo to recover and repurpose surplus food from the campus kitchens. We collaborate with local organizations and schools to distribute recovered food and meals to those in need. We focus on Northeast Spokane neighborhoods with higher rates of poverty. These communities also have limited access to grocery stores and healthy food. The member will support all aspects of the program from recovery to food delivery. The member will also recruit, coordinate, and supervise volunteers. We expect to begin rolling review of applications and interviews in mid-April. Monthly stipend amount: $2,438.
