FOOD PICK UP AT HANNAFORD
Do you have a truck? We need you! We’re looking for someone to meet us at Hannaford at 7am on Saturdays and Sundays to transport boxes of produce and deli items to the Heineberg Senior Community Center. This job takes just a half hour, but makes a huge difference! If you’re interested in helping, please follow THIS LINK to contact us!

 

VOLUNTEER GUIDELINES

• Safety – If you are sick, please let us know and postpone volunteering until you are better. Always ask for assistance from other volunteers when lifting heavy bags or boxes of food.
• Respect – We treat everyone with respect.
• Confidentiality – If you see someone you know coming for help, be polite and friendly. Do not tell others who you saw here or repeat anything you hear. We want to respect everyone’s privacy. Some people may have left an abusive relationship, or they may be picking up for someone else.
  Do not assume you know the person’s situation.
• Caring – Concerns should be reported. If you see or hear something that does not seem right, such as suspected abuse, illness, suicide or self-harm, report it immediately to Thom Fleury.
• Reliable – Volunteers are important and people are counting on you to be here as you promised.
  Be on time and volunteer the length of time you have committed to volunteer.
• Gratitude – Thank you, we appreciate your time and generous spirit. We foster a culture of appreciation for you and the people we serve. Everyone has something to contribute and for that reason we are thankful.
