FOOD: Lucky Duck Unsheltered Homeless Program in San Diego

FOOD:
Lucky Duck Meals for the Unsheltered Homeless Program in San Diego

The Lucky Duck Food and Water Initiative has distributed over 2 million meals to San Diego’s unsheltered neighbors since May 2020. This project is vital to getting food and water to the unhoused on the streets of San Diego County and volunteers are critical to making it happen.

• Pack, sort and load food and water.

• No prior experience required
• Comfortable working in a warehouse environment
• Able to lift bags weighing up to 35 pounds using proper lifting technique
• Comfortable standing for the duration of the shift

On‑site training provided at the beginning of the shift.

Closed‑toe shoes are required. The opportunity takes place indoors. Always check the weather forecast; it can get hot at the distribution site because of the physical nature of the work.

Volunteers will be lifting bags that weigh up to 35 pounds and standing for the duration of the shift.

Use proper lifting form: bend with your knees and hips, keep your back straight and shoulders back. Lift by straightening your hips and knees. Hold the bag close to your body, set it down by bending knees and hips only. The project can accommodate physical limitations, including providing a chair or wheelchair‑accessible space.

Lucky Duck Foundation requires a waiver for minors.

The Lucky Duck Foundation is committed to raising awareness and funds to help alleviate the homelessness epidemic in San Diego County and provide support and relief from harsh conditions to the thousands of homeless individuals and families living on our streets.
