Accessing fresh, healthy food can be a challenge for many individuals in Central Oregon, especially for those living in remote areas or without reliable transportation. To help overcome these barriers, NeighborImpact’s mobile food pantry, Fresh 2 You, delivers fresh fruits, vegetables, meats, dairy, grains, and other healthy staples directly to underserved communities. By bringing the pantry to schools, health centers, and other public spaces, this innovative program allows visitors to “shop” for the food they need right from the truck.
Fresh 2 You will be in Madras on the first Monday of each month to distribute groceries at 241 SE 7th Street, and NeighborImpact is seeking volunteers to help make this effort a success!
Volunteer Opportunities Include:
- Signing in shoppers
- Replenishing food supplies on the truck
- Helping shoppers load groceries into their vehicles
- Assisting NeighborImpact staff with miscellaneous tasks
This is a fantastic opportunity to give back to your community by helping ensure that local families have access to nutritious food. Your time and energy can make a real difference in the lives of those struggling to access fresh food.
