Summer 2025 Food Drive Captain

Volunteer Alexandria | http://www.VolunteerAlexandria.org

Food insecurity is a real issue, and the food pantries often become depleted during the summer. This July, VolALX is hosting its third annual Food4ALX food drive.
 
Dedicated Team Captains are needed to help us make this food drive a success.

As a Team Captain, you’ll:

  • Attend a 30-minute orientation either Monday, June 23, 4:30 p.m., or Wednesday, June 25, 9 a.m. You will pick up your empty crates at this time.
  • Be matched with one or two collection sites.
  • Pick up food from the collection sites three to four times throughout the weeks of July 14, 21, and 28.
  • Connect with your site(s), arrange pickup using the provided crates, and then deliver them to the warehouse for weighing.
  • Make your last pick-up on Thursday, July 31.
You need to:
  • Have a valid driver's license and your own vehicle (with insurance)
  • Be able to carry about 20 pounds of food using a crate
  • Be available during the day.

If this is you, please register and make plans to join us for a kick-off on Thursday, June 26, 4 – 6 p.m. Our goal is to collect 40,000 pounds of food for Alexandria families. Help us make this happen! More details about the food drive can be found online.
