Roadrunner Food Bank Seeks Volunteers for SNAP Outreach

The SNAP Outreach team at Roadrunner Food Bank is seeking volunteers to help educate and inform clients about the benefits of enrolling in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (formerly known as the Food Stamps program). 

SNAP is an effective way to address hunger by providing families and individuals access to fresh, nutritious food. According to Feeding America’s May 2017 Map the Meal Gap report, 25% or 124,980 of New Mexico children are at risk of hunger. The report also shows the overall hunger rate in New Mexico is 16% where 332,610 people in our state are at-risk for hunger.

Volunteer opportunities are available at various locations around the Albuquerque area. The team will provide training and staff members will join you at the outreach location. Days and times are flexible.
 
To participate, send an e-mail message to Marissa Johnson (Marissa.Johnson@rrfb.org) or call 505-314-0599
 
The mission of Roadrunner Food Bank is to permanently end hunger in New Mexico, and the food bank needs your help to get us there.
