About the role
The New London Area Food Pantry (NLAFP), an all-volunteer organization established in 1986, is looking for drivers, using their personal pickup trucks, to assist in picking up food donations for the Pantry. This activity is a critical facet of our volunteer operation. The size of the loads vary from a few cases to a pallet. The pickups are twice weekly on Mondays and Thursdays to locations such as Costco, United Way, Hillandale Farms, etc. The time required will be approximately 1.5 hours each day driving in an area < 10 miles from the Pantry. New volunteers will work with a team of 3 current drivers, all sharing assignments. Potential drivers must have a valid license and a good driving record and are required to maintain personal auto liability limits of $100,000 or combined single limit of $100,000/$300,000. Drivers are welcome to participate in other facets of Pantry operation if they wish. Watch our video to learn more: New London Area Food Pantry
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
