Opportunity Details

Stock The Pantry: Feed Seniors' Pets (age 16+) *MLK 2012*

Hands On Managed projects offer you an opportunity to join a group of volunteers on a done-in-a-day project led by a Hands On Volunteer Leader

Be one of 2,100 volunteers honoring the legacy of Dr. King through meaningful service to communities throughout the Greater Portland area.

It’s a fact: Many seniors who receive home-delivered meals give up their food to feed their cats and dogs.

That’s why FIDO started AniMeals. This is a partnership with Clackamas County Social Services and Senior Meals programs to provide nutritious pet food for the cats and dogs of people who receive home-delivered meals. Every other week AniMeals serves 222 cats and 101 dogs by delivering 888 lbs. of cat food and 606 lbs. of dog food to local senior centers There are over 162 seniors currently signed up to receive pet food along with their senior meals.

Volunteers will work in the small AniMeals warehouse doing some combination of the following activities: reorganizing shelves, pulling outdated food, restocking, sorting, cleaning, or packaging food. Please be flexible as we put you to work on whatever our need is at the time!
