HungerCorps VISTA, UWKC

Since the start of the COVID-19 outbreak, food banks and meals sites in our community have stepped up to support low-income families. As a Summer Associate with United Way of King County, you will be assigned to a food bank or meals site, where you’ll use your skills and experience to support critical anti-hunger work. You will prepare and serve meals, pack boxes of food, engage with community members, and conduct grassroots community outreach to get the word out about available resources. You can expect to prepare meals or food boxes; distribute meals or groceries at apartment complexes, parks, community centers or food banks; manage meal distribution logistics, including maintaining federal program requirements; and build relationships with families and collect client feedback. As part of a federal program, you will ensure that the policies & procedures are followed, meals are accurately counted and inventoried, and food is prepared safely. You will gain experience working directly with the community and in support of a respected and influential nonprofit. Training will be provided in site management, marketing, family engagement, and data tracking – hard skills that will make your summer work influential on your resume. Serve in your community with placements in Seattle, Tukwila, Renton, Auburn, East King County, Kent, or Federal Way.
