Friday, August 30, 2024 5 Brooklin Town Crier Do you have some free time on Thursdays or Fridays? We are looking for volunteers to deliver food boxes containing essential groceries to clients' homes. Come join our wonderful team of volunteers and deliver food boxes for Community Care Durham (CCD). With the support of local businesses and farms, the CFB contains the essentials for healthy eating. With the rising costs of groceries, food boxes offer an affordable way to help families. The fresh produce included in the boxes is locally grown, giving clients a farm-to-table experience. As well, the food boxes also contain fresh eggs, dairy and bread. Thanks to a recent generous donation, CCD is now able to provide healthy food to all those who were on our waitlist for the CFB program subsidy. With this incredible opportunity, we now face the challenge of needing additional volunteers. Using their own vehicles, volunteers pick up the food boxes from the Whitby Hub (20 Sunray Street) on Thursday afternoons at 2 p.m. or Friday mornings between 9:30 and 11 a.m. Each assigned route takes about an hour to complete. There is an option for mileage reimbursement on a monthly basis, based on the kilometers driven or monies can be donated back to CCD. If you're interested in joining our team, all you need to do is visit our website at http:// www.communitycaredurham.on.ca and complete the volunteer application. Once you've submitted your application, a member of our Volunteer Resources Team will be in touch to provide you with additional information and guide you through the volunteer process.
