July FoodShare Box Packing & Distribution

Already signed up?   

Every other week, FoodShare South Carolina packs and distributes hundreds of fresh food boxes for community members facing food insecurity. To get the job done, we rely on the generous support of our volunteer force. Thank you for serving with us!

If this is your first time volunteering to pack boxes, please complete this volunteer waiver and bring it with you on your volunteer day.

Here's a video that describes more about what to expect.

Please opt out of volunteering if you are experiencing COVID-19, cold or flu symptoms or have been exposed and are waiting on test results. 

Please email Kim Hollins (kimberley.hollins@uscmed.sc.edu) with any questions.
