Volunteer Opportunities
East Central Community Center
East Central Community Organization
We are currently looking for volunteers to help out in our computer lab monitoring users, assisting with job search and basic computer skills
The staff at the ECCO Food Bank strives to create a positive volunteer experience by being organized, friendly, helpful and accommodating. The Food Bank does whatever it takes to ensure that a volunteer’s time is well utilized and truly helps those in need.
The Food Bank provides a place where socialization and
friendships are encouraged and where everyone is welcome.
“What will a volunteer be doing?”
-
Our food bank storage area represents both the heart of our operation and our greatest need. You will be trained to conscientiously check, clean, label, sort, and box food and non-food packaged items, which will then be made available to our clients. You will also help keep the area organized and clean.
-
From time to time the Food Bank hosts food drives and special fund-raising events and we always need helping hands and minds to perform a variety of services.
Scheduling Volunteer Sessions
-
T
Friday from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM. Special projects take place year round and at times we may need volunteers during the evening.
Volunteer Sessions are to be made by appointment only. Please contact Sonya Ellis at (509) 625-6699/ email: sellis@spokanecity.org
On the day of your volunteer session please arrive 5 minutes early.
If you are new to the Food Bank there will be a quick tour followed by a brief training session so that you will feel comfortable during your time here at the Food Bank.
Once you make an appointment please stick to that scheduled time. If you are not able to attend your volunteer session please try and call 24 hours in advance so we can try and find someone else to fill that slot.
