More than 700 volunteers are involved in all aspects of ASF, including client services, fundraising and operations. Some of our programs, such as the food pantry, operate almost completely through the effort of volunteers, while in other programs, they complement the work of staff. We are very grateful for the contribution these special heroes make to ASF and our clients. Volunteers provide clients with light housekeeping on a regular or one-time basis. This is a 6-month program.
Volunteers are essential to food pantry operations.
In-house volunteers fill orders and stock shelves. Other volunteers deliver food to homebound clients who live near their home or work areas. Volunteers visit with clients who live in skilled nursing facilities or who are in the hospital to alleviate boredom and isolation. The volunteer spirit is at the heart of ASF s fundraising programs.
