Opportunités de bénévolat à Vancouver - Family

Vancouver Food Runners prevents good food from going to waste by redirecting it to nonprofit organizations that support people facing food insecurity across Metro Vancouver. Using our simple app and a network of volunteer drivers—called Food Rescue Heroes—we match surplus food from local businesses like bakeries, grocers, and cafes to community partners.We’re currently seeking passionate volunteers to join our team. Each food rescue takes just 30–60 minutes and can be done on your own schedule. It’s a simple but powerful way to make a meaningful impact in your community. Download our free App today to get started:  Apple: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/vancouver-food-runners/id1507395750  Android: https://play.google.com/store/search?q=vancouver+food+runners&c=apps&hl=en
