Poverty reduction

Food bank Deventer wants to contribute to the alleviation of (hidden) poverty and at the same time combat food waste. We do this by collecting high-quality food and then making food packages from it. We distribute these packages to households and single people living in poverty. In addition, if desired, we bring the people who use the Food Bank into contact with the existing social counters.

Voedselbank Deventer works with volunteers at all levels. The executive work includes:

• Handling requests for food packages.
• Transporting products to and from Food Bank Deventer.
• Compile food packages + perform work in the shed.
• Answering the phone, keeping track of the customer database, etc.
• Maintaining contact with suppliers.
• Acquiring food in order to be able to put together a varied food package.
• Recruiting sponsors, donors and other funds to get the exploitation financially covered.
• Taking care of and keeping the social media (website, newsletters, etc.) up to date

You will learn to better understand what poverty does to people and how you can offer support in a respectful and effective way.

A surprisingly cheerful training in which you learn to think, look, talk, and act differently. As a result, you also behave differently: freer, more positive, and more creative.

The secretary is often the connecting link within a board: the one who maintains an overview, monitors agreements, and ensures that everything runs smoothly.
