Flagstaff Family Food Center
Sandwich Delivery Help us extend our reach beyond the walls of our center! During the Sandwich Delivery, volunteers transport and distribute pre-packed lunches—including sandwiches, fruit, and snacks—to various locations throughout the Flagstaff community. You’ll load deliveries, follow a provided route or map, and ensure that each site receives the right number of lunches. This role is ideal for volunteers who enjoy being out and about, working independently or with a partner, and making a direct impact on food insecurity. You’ll represent Flagstaff Family Food Center with each delivery, offering a friendly greeting and ensuring lunches are handed off safely and efficiently. Drivers must have a valid license and a clean driving record; all volunteers should be reliable, punctual, and ready to serve with care and professionalism. Your efforts help us reach children, families, and individuals who might otherwise go without a meal. Thank you for bringing nourishment and hope across Flagstaff—one delivery at a time!
