Time Commitment: 4 hours per week (flexible scheduling)
What you'll do: Pick up groceries from our suppliers, pack weekly food boxes, and deliver to community members across Portland metro
WEEKLY PROCESS
Saturday or Sunday mornings: Pick up fresh groceries from partner stores and food distributors
SAT/SUN afternoons: Pack customized food boxes based on household size and dietary needs
Weekends: Deliver food boxes to community members in your assigned neighborhood route
Admin: Email check-ins with recipients about any dietary restrictions or cultural preferences
Skills needed: Reliable transportation, ability to lift 20-30 lbs, basic smartphone skills for delivery coordination

Real talk: This isn't glamorous work - you'll be loading cars, driving around Portland, and trying to figure out parking in places you’ve never been while dropping off groceries. But you'll also be the reason someone has dinner tonight. Which means you’re probably really freakin’ cool.
