Ready to get started?
We'll provide a brief training covering everything you need to know, including our mission, policies, and delivery procedures. We welcome volunteers 18 and older. 16- and 17-year-olds are also welcome with parental permission and a delivery companion (who will also need a background check). All adult volunteers will complete a background check.
Join us and be a part of building a stronger, healthier community, one delivery at a time!
