About the volunteering opportunity

The drivers and co-drivers of our vans meet on weekdays at our Tafel distribution point. There, the vehicles are loaded with boxes and then drive on fixed routes to supermarkets, bakeries, butcher shops, etc. in the city. There, the drivers and co-drivers take over donated food, pre-sort it and load the goods into our vehicles. We then distribute the food to our food banks for distribution and to social institutions such as daycare centers, all-day schools, youth centers and women's shelters
