...your playing small does not serve the world

 

**PLEASE WEAR YOUR MASKS**

**BE SAFE**

**BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS**

Thank you in advance for your interest in volunteering with BOSS Bay Area Food Run!!


Please complete this form for only one person per vehicle, even if you are bringing a helper.


NOTE: If you arrive at the event to volunteer without signing up below you will be turned away.

Once you pick up the meals the end time varies based on drive time etc. and is usually about 1 to 2 hours.

If you are looking to pick up food for yourself/your family please arrive at 10:30 am (no need to sign up). This sign up is only for volunteers. Thanks!

 HOW IT WORKS:

1) Sign up for a meal pick up window time slot below for Saturday December 18, 2021. (We will fill up the cars as the food arrives. Please be on time and be patient)

2) We are asking volunteers to bring (donate)with them 3-5 cases of water bottle donations.

3) Arrive at 1600 San Pablo Ave. Oakland at your designated shift time.

** Masks for ALL volunteers REQUIRED at ALL times. (We have masks on site if you need one.) Be sure to wear the mask correctly by keeping your nose covered as well.

**IF YOU FEEL SICK, STAY HOME!!! Text or Call that you cannot participate please text or call (510.925.5477)


 4) Our team will review details with you and have you complete a waiver if you have not already done so. If you’ve volunteered prior or are a BOSS Bay Area employee we have a waiver on file for you.

5) A core volunteer for BOSS Bay Area will load up your vehicle with freshly made meals (that are individually packaged and ready to eat) plus utensils, and gloves for volunteers to wear.

 6) BOSS Bay Area will provide a short list of 1 to 4 locations to drop off the food/water/dog food/other supplies, plus tips for delivery.

 7) Arrive at the assigned curbside community drop off point(s). Park in a safe area. Wear your mask! Wave to any folks you can see. You are entering their living room unannounced, please be courteous and friendly.

 8) Using gloves provided to you, unload a few boxes of food and water.

 9) From a safe distance, politely get the attention of a camp resident.

Ask them:
 
(a) If you have left too little (or too much) food and water? How many residents are at this location?

 (b) Can that person alert the other community members about the food/water that you are leaving so that it does NOT go to waste?

 
*DO NOT JUST DROP OFF FOOD AND LEAVE WITHOUT FINDING A RESIDENT WILLING TO HELP SHARE THE RESOURCES WITH THEIR NEIGHBORS.*


 No one will eat random food that is just sitting there for who knows how long. Would you?

 **DO NOT TAKE PHOTOS OF ANYONE**
(Selfies are fine)

* If you would like to take a selfie (Masks on!) with the food/water you are distributing that is great, but please respect the privacy of everyone you come in contact with. Feel free to share your photos with us by submitting here: BOSSBayArea@self-sufficiecncy.org

10) Scan the code on your location sheet and submit all feedback ASAP...thank you!

(If unable to do so, EMAIL BossBayArea@self-sufficiency.org or TEXT (510) 925-5477 with your feedback.)

OTHER DETAILS:

If the driver wants to bring ONE helper that's great! But we need to fill your car as much as possible, so ideally only two volunteers per car.

Before you arrive please CLEAR OUT YOUR TRUNK AND BACK SEATS completely of any miscellaneous items to allow for maximum use of space.

Once more...If you feel sick and can't attend this event please call or text Chef Satia (510)925-5477 with as much notice as possible.

REMEMBER that signing up below means that we are COUNTING on you. Please let us know in advance if you cannot make it to the event
