Are you driven to help fight against hunger? If so, volunteer as a Driver’s Assistant, where you will accompany one of our Food Shuttle drivers on a truck, recovering food from our partner agencies in our surrounding service counties, and helping in our warehouse.
Where to Check-In?
Please arrive on time at our Durham Warehouse to begin your shift. Our address is 2436 S Miami Blvd, Durham, NC 27703, and the warehouse is in the back right corner of the parking lot. You will be greeted by a staff member in the office and brought to the warehouse when it is time to be paired with a driver.
Dress Code
You must wear CLOSED-TOE/HEEL SHOES. We recommend bringing gloves, water, and a snack or lunch. Volunteers may take a lunch break from 1 - 1:30 PM. There is NO smoking or vaping in the Food Shuttle vehicles.
Shift Duration
It is important to be on time for your shift. If you are late, there is a strong chance that you will not be able to volunteer for this opportunity, as our drivers must stay on schedule for their pick-up and drop-off times. Drivers will not return to the Durham Warehouse until they are done with their route and will only return early for emergencies. When registering for a shift, please make sure you can be at the warehouse by 9 AM and expect to stay until at least 2:30 PM If you cannot commit to the entire shift, please do not sign up.
