Food Is Medicine Program - Port Chester

For low-income families, eating healthy can be incredibly challenging. The cost of healthy groceries is simply out of reach. In partnership with Feeding Westchester's Food is Medicine program, Open Door Family Medical Center provides nutritious and healthful fresh produce and fruit to its patients with food-related health challenges.

Volunteers are needed to help bag fresh produce and break down and stack empty cartons. This position requires long periods of standing, lifting, and bending, and volunteers must be able to lift 15-pound bags. This opportunity takes place on Thursdays from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and it is limited to two volunteers per week.
