  • Distribute food directly to people in need


Availability of the activity:

  • Thursdays


Shift:

Volunteers are requested to bring:
Space is limited, so volunteers should bring as little as possible and keep their valuables in their pockets. There will be space on the bus to store lunch (that doesn't require cooling or heating), a water bottle and a small bag.
Volunteers should wear comfortable clothing suitable for bending and lifting, and bring a warm jacket as some tasks require being outdoors.
