The Agape Centre seeking volunteers for soup kitchen

Cornwall Ontario — Ever thought about volunteering in the soup kitchen at the Agapè Centre?

Right now they need volunteers on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 am to 2:15 pm. You would  help their cook prepare and serve lunch to about 100 clients every day, and then help with the clean-up.

“Many volunteers say it’s a very rewarding experience, and that they feel a sense of connection to the community”, says Kendra Smith who is the Volunteer Coordinator at the Agape.

“We’re looking for people who are reliable, comfortable in a kitchen setting and working directly with clients, and who are able to keep confidentiality, to work as a team and to follow food handler’s hygiene practices”.

If you think you might be interested, please fill out an application (available here: http://agapecentre.ca/take-action/give-time/) and submit either in person or by email to volunteercoordinator@agapecentre.ca.

If you have any questions, please contact Kendra at 613-938-9297 ext 21.

Applications must be complete. All individuals who are qualified and meet the requirements will be contacted for an interview.
