Volunteer Role:
Volunteers (approx. 275 volunteers per shift) will collect and pack product that remains on the expo floor at the close of the event.  The purpose of collecting and packing this product is two-fold: 1) to recover fresh food for people in need and prevent waste and 2) to package product in a format that facilitates distribution to ACFB's partner agencies on October 18th.  Staff will be on site to orient and support volunteers during the work shift. Volunteers will need to be able to be on their feet for the entire shift. Medium to heavy lifting required.

Volunteer Requirements: Adult (all volunteers must be 18+) and able to stand for the length of the shift. Medium to heavy lifting required.

Parking: Parking is available on site for approx. $10-$20. ACFB cannot reimburse for parking, so carpooling and/or travelling on MARTA is recommended.

Volunteer Perks: Enjoy rolling up your sleeves and working hard to help ACFB distribute hundreds of thousands of pounds of fresh nutritious food to organizations who serve those in most need in our community.  Snacks and drinks will be provided for volunteers during their shift.
