Volunteer Opportunity: Repack with Greater Chicago Food Depository

You will repack donated and purchased food. The food received at Greater Chicago Food Depository’s warehouse comes in bulk quantities, and volunteers break it down into manageable sizes. Together, we can properly and efficiently distribute quality food to participating food pantries, soup kitchens, and shelters in Cook County. In a Repack session you may sort produce, inspect and box shipments of bread, or repack bulk dry goods (pasta, rice, beans) into smaller quantities.
