Manna Food Project

As part of Manna's preparedness procedures for COVID-19, we are canceling all volunteer groups and most regularly-scheduled volunteer opportunities. That being said, we will still need a limited number of volunteers to help us with operations.  

1) Food Rescue will continue to run as scheduled. Drivers and riders are still needed if you are comfortable in helping out. Please sign up through the online calendar or through the MyImpact phone app.

2) We are inviting a small number of volunteers to assist with other tasks. You MUST be able to lift 20-40 pounds for hours at a time, not have any symptoms of or recent exposure to illness, and call Jessyca at 231-347-8852 or 269-908-8563 to confirm your appointment.

Here are some other ways you can help:

• Continue to donate and provide your financial support. While food banks across the country are reporting lower donation rates, the need for emergency food is increasing due to school closures, illness, and financial stress.
• Keep yourself healthy. Wash your hands often and follow good hygiene practices to stop the spread of COVID-19 and reduce the burden on local health providers.
• Stay informed. For volunteer updates and ways to lend a hand, please subscribe to our volunteer newsletter at http://mannafoodproject.org/volunteer-newsletter.htm. While we so appreciate our community’s support, we ask that you use this avenue for volunteer information to keep our phone lines open for emergency needs. 

Thank you for your cooperation and continued support during this time.
