Boccardo Reception Center - Dinner - Serve

Volunteering to serve a meal at a shelter is a popular way to help. Meal service is open to both individuals and groups. Volunteer shifts are available 7-days a week and can accommodate volunteers who want to serve on a regular basis and those who will volunteer occasionally.

 

*This volunteer event does not include bringing any type of food.

 

Meal service volunteers will help with final meal preparation tasks under the supervision of shelter staff. For example: tossing salad, slicing bread, plating food. Meal servers will then distribute plated food to shelter guests, prepare ‘late plates’, pour beverages, clear & wipe tables, clean up spills, etc. Volunteers need to be able to stand and walk for an extended period of time, use hands and arms for stirring, slicing, lifting and pouring.

• Regular shelter volunteers (those who volunteer 8 or more hours per year) must have proof of a negative TB test on file.
• Volunteers must wear closed-toe shoes, long pants or skirt and shirt with sleeves, no tank tops or strapless type shirts please. Apparel with potentially offensive language/images/symbols is not allowed. Long hair should be pulled back and hairnets are required during food service.

Face coverings must be worn at all times while inside the shelter.
