What Do Volunteers Do?

Volunteers are critical to the mission of the SOS Foundation. We have weekday opportunities volunteering at our two food pantries, community kitchen, and various schools and childcare sites participating in our nutrition education program. Volunteer opportunities are further described below.

Nutrition Education

Volunteers assist SOS staff in teaching nutrition education at public elementary schools throughout Monroe County.  Curriculums range in length, from four to sixteen weeks, and all lessons are one hour. Ideally, volunteers could commit to either a full 4- or 16-week series. No prior nutrition or teaching experience is needed. Volunteers must pass a background check to work in the schools.
