Time vs. Money

If you’d like to contribute to Food At First, but don’t have much disposable income, perhaps it’s a good time to think about giving something TRULY valuable: your time!  We are blessed with LOTS of volunteers for meals, but we continue to expand our gleaning efforts, and need to find a volunteer for each of the following spots:
* Monday mornings, picking up bread from Hy-Vee
* Monday mornings, picking up meat/baked goods from Sam’s Club
* Wednesday mornings, picking up bread from Hy-Vee
* Thursday mornings, picking up meat/baked goods from Sam’s Club
* Saturday mornings, picking up produce from Hy-Vee
* Sunday mornings, picking up produce from Hy-Vee
Wow – that’s pretty much every day of the week, isn’t it?!  ;o)  We’re hoping to find one or two people for each shift, so that they can trade off to accommodate vacations and other commitments.  If you’re wondering, the MOST critical need right now is for Sam’s Club on Mondays and Thursdays.  If you would like to find out more (without committing yourself), we’d love to have you “ride along” for any of the above pickups – just email scott@foodatfirst.com with your preference, or any questions you may have!  We hope that you’ll seriously consider this opportunity – many of our volunteers describe gleaning as one of the highlights of their week!
