The Neighborhood Distribution is a drive-thru-style distribution that requires guests to remain in their vehicles while volunteers and staff load their trunks with boxes of produce, dairy, frozen meat and non-perishable&nbsp;food items. Volunteers assist in greeting and registering guests, loading vehicles with groceries, and assisting with traffic control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those&nbsp;interested in volunteering at the Neighborhood Distribution should email&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:volunteer@acrfb.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">volunteer@acrfb.org<\/a>&nbsp;or call 330-535-6900. Volunteers should have the ability to lift about 30 pounds and be comfortable in inclement weather, as the distribution&nbsp;takes place outside, rain or shine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Volunteers are needed from 1:30-4:30 p.m. on Oct. 22, Dec. 3 and Dec. 22.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>National Parks Conservancy Make a Difference Day Thank you to the amazing volunteers that planted trees with us for National Public Lands Day!
