Food Distribution

The food distribution project consists of providing basic food to families in need. It takes place twice a week and its objective are not only to distribute food to families but to spend time with them, talking and accompanying the beneficiaries. So, volunteers will be leaded by a project coordinator, who will instruct them and provide them with the tools, indications and whatever will be necessary to develop the activity. Volunteers will be who will go to the beneficiaries’ houses to deliver them the food and spend a nice time with them. If you’d like, you can also bring unopened non-perishable food items or hygiene products for the recipients. This is entirely voluntary. Some examples include: pasta, rice, canned goods, lentils or beans, oatmeal, tea, oil, toothpaste, toothbrushes, or soap. Please bring only unopened items that do not require refrigeration. Bringing these items is not required to participate in the activity; feel free to bring them only if you’d like to. The activity takes place on Friday afternoons, starting around 16:00 and finishing around 18:30 and on Saturday mornings, from 10:30 to 13.00. Volunteers can sign up on the day of their choice and can drive the car themselves (petrol is included) or if they prefer to go with volunteers from the organisation.
