Volunteer forklift drivers will need to be comfortable operating sit-down forklifts. We request a commitment of at least 4 hours. The environment will be sanitary and we will work to maintain safe distances.
We are the foundation of Minnesota’s hunger-relief system. It’s our priority to continue to get food to our food shelf partners, who are reporting record numbers of visits. We have committed to 200,000 boxes and box components over the next 7 weeks and are working with suppliers and transportation to get the product here as quickly as we can. Now, more than ever, it’s vital that we provide meals to families experiencing hunger.
Thank you for your support!
Sincerely,
Paige Stein
