Food Sorts

Food sorting is fun, fast paced and Hunger Task Force’s most popular volunteer activity. Over 2,000 people each year help sort between 1.1 – 1.7 million pounds of food. Gather a group from work, church, school or friends for 3 hours and sort over 15,000 pounds of food. Bring your reading glasses so you can check for expired and damaged food. Move, stack and make boxes.

All volunteers must be able to be on their feet throughout the entire three-hour activity.

We are currently scheduling groups of 25-30 for food sorts from June-September, 2010. If you are interested, contact Marie Greenfield at (414) 238-6473 or marie @ hungertaskforce.org

All volunteers ages 12 and over are welcome. Every three youths between the ages of 12-15 must be accompanied by an adult.

All food sorters must wear close-toed sturdy shoes – NO SANDALS OR BALLET SLIPPER SHOES– best shoes are tennis shoes or steel-toed boots.
