Morning warehouse shift at Food Bank of the Rockies
Work the food sorting line at the Aurora warehouse. Inspect donations, repack bulk goods, move product. Shift runs 8:45 AM to noon. Ages 10+.
Why we picked this
Tuesday morning warehouse shift — the sorting output here is concrete: pallets of processed food that ship out the same week to agencies serving families across Colorado.
Volunteers working this Tuesday morning shift sort through food donations on the warehouse floor at Food Bank of the Rockies in Aurora — checking dates and quality, pulling unusable items, consolidating product, and repacking bulk goods into family-sized quantities. The food processed here supplies the distribution network that reaches partner agencies throughout Colorado.
Expect physical work for the duration: standing for three hours, lifting and carrying boxes, pushing loaded carts, and working alongside other volunteers on the sorting line. Closed-toe shoes are required. Layering is recommended for the 8:45 AM start. Shift ends at noon.
Up to 30 volunteers can register, and group registration is supported. All sign-ups must be completed in advance through VolunteerHub — no walk-ins. Minimum age is 10; volunteers under 16 must have a supervising adult present throughout the shift.
