UN SIMPLE GESTO

Una colecta de alimentos en curso que cambia la comunidad, una bolsa verde a la vez.

ES SIMPLE

Vecino a Vecino: Recogida puerta a puerta.

Los donantes mantienen una bolsa de supermercado reutilizable en sus cocinas y agregan un alimento no perecedero cada semana.

Cada dos meses, en una fecha determinada, los donantes dejan la bolsa frente a la puerta de su casa. Los conductores voluntarios recogen la bolsa llena de alimentos y dejan una bolsa vacía para usar durante los próximos dos meses. Los alimentos recolectados son entregados ese mismo día a varios bancos de alimentos para su distribución a los más necesitados.

Sorters are one of the key components for a successful ASG pickup! The task of a sorter is to weigh donations, crossing off barcodes, checking dates on donated items, and stocking the shelves. For more information on becoming a volunteer sorter email Alyssa Medina.
