FOOD: North Park Food Distribution Set-up
Help with the set-up of a weekly food distribution in North Park to low income community members. Each Friday evening New Vision Christian Fellowship serves food for free to the general public and needs volunteers to assist them with this worthy cause, and to help them better serve the community at large.
Volunteer activities include: processing food for distribution, setting up the serving area, breaking down and stacking cardboard, and sorting out food unfit for consumption. Let the Team Leader know if you are comfortable using a pallet jack to move larger items.

About New Vision Christian Fellowship
We are a group of believers who long to express their love to God and to others. We've come to realize that we are broken people who have been restored by the healer’s hand. We acknowledge that we don’t know it all, but know the one who does. We invite others who have been broken to join us on a journey where we can discover the healers hand together and restore us back to a right relationship with Him and each other.
