- Feeding Southwest Virginia’s Salem Food Bank (Two shifts: 9am-12pm and/or 1pm-4pm). Volunteers will be working in Quality Assurance (QA) to evaluate donated food products by inspecting and sorting packaged food products to control for such issues as shelf life (dates), dented cans, crushed boxes, or other superficially damaged food.
- Food Drive for Virginia Western Student Food Co-Op, powered by Kroger. Please bring in food items (items of need can be found here) from December 2nd, 2024 through January 10th, 2025.
