Backpack Program Delivery – Sioux Falls
Join us each week as we bring joy and nourishment to children in need through our Backpack Program! With the help of dedicated volunteers and staff, we prepare nearly 3,000 backpacks per week filled with food to support kids over the weekend. We’re looking for helpers to join us in delivering these essential packs to schools across the Sioux Falls and surrounding area.
What You'll Do:
- Accompany a Feeding South Dakota staff member on a delivery route.
- Help load and unload totes of food in and out of the vehicle. Each full tote weighs about 30 pounds, so you’ll need to be comfortable lifting and moving heavy items.
What to Expect:
- Please arrive 10 minutes early dressed in comfortable, layered clothing and closed-toe shoes.
- Training and instructions will be provided on-site, and staff will be there to support you throughout your shift.
What We’re Looking For:
- Ability to stand and walk for 3-4 hours.
- Ability to lift up to 60 pounds periodically.
- Must be 18 years or older due to outdoor work in varying weather conditions.
If you need to cancel your shift, please contact us at 605-335-0364 or email info@feedingsouthdakota.org.
Come help us spread a little extra cheer and make a big difference in our community!
