AIMC Volunteers at the Atlanta Community Food Bank
Sunday, June 8, 2025 - 8:30am - 1:30pm
@ Stone Mountain Community Food Center
Please join us in volunteering with the Atlanta Community Food Bank at the Community Food Center- Stone Mountain on Sunday June 8, 2025 from 8:30 am - 1:30 pm. This will be a change from the prior warehouse setting with an opportunity to be client facing at a distribution facility. Atlanta Insight Meditation Community has reserved all 12 volunteer slots for this shift.
This is a family friendly activity. Children 8 years old and up are able to participate when accompanied by an adult.
Location:
Stone Mountain Community Food Center, 1979 Parker Court, Suite D, Stone Mountain, GA 30087
Please arrive 10 minutes prior to the shift start time to check-in. Orientation begins promptly at the start of the shift. Late volunteers may be unable to serve.
Dress Code: Closed-toe and closed-heel shoes are required, with sneakers or work boots recommended. Flip flops, Crocs, sandals or heeled shoes are not allowed. Please wear comfortable clothing which you do not mind getting a bit rumpled. Some volunteers will be sorting refrigerated product. Please wear long pants and bring a sweatshirt or light jacket with you. In the event you are working elsewhere, we do have lockers onsite to place your outerwear.
Food Donations: With 1 in every 9 Georgians at risk of hunger, the number of people requesting emergency food assistance continues to grow. If every volunteer visiting our Hunger Action Center brings just two cans of food, we would be able to provide approximately 2,750 additional meals each month! *Please consider bringing as many nonperishable items as you can! You're already making a tremendous difference by volunteering. Think how much that can be magnified by grabbing a couple of food items to bring with you when you come! We're always in need of natural peanut butter, canned chicken, and canned fruits & vegetables.
