Our driving and pick-up volunteer shifts are semester-long commitments lasting from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours. For a lower time commitment, connect with us for catered event pickups and back-up substitute volunteer shifts throughout the year.
Call dining halls to confirm they have leftover food, retrieve Manna keys, pick up volunteers and empty trays, drive to dining halls and return to Manna to weigh and store the food.
Join the driver and another pick-up volunteer to carry empty trays into the dining halls, carry filled trays to the car and into Manna kitchen to weight and store the food.
Join a group chat to be alerted of upcoming and last-minute requests to transport extra food from catered events around campus to Manna Community Kitchen (located on Elm St. next to the Smith College Museum of Art)
Support FRN's 50+ volunteers throughout the year in leadership roles: president, vice president, treasurer, social media manager, secretary, and data analyst. Roles are filled for fall 2024, looking for a treasurer in spring 2025.
