Packing food bags for the needy and sorting rescued food

From the manager to the housekeeper, a colorful team sorts an equally diverse selection of donated fruit and vegetables according to the principle of the five senses and valid food standards. You will first be given a short introduction and then you can get straight down to sorting the food together with other volunteers. The food will then be packed into bags so that it can be distributed to Berliners in need and refugees from Ukraine.

Of course, there will be a lunch break during which you will receive a free lunch :)

Together with many volunteers, you are responsible for sorting donated food (mainly fruit and vegetables). The food bags are then packed for delivery to needy households.
