open Cupboard - Oakdale, MN
Community Engagement Specialist
Open Cupboard’s mission is to provide nutritious food to our neighbors in a respectful manner and engage our community in the fight against hunger. We currently provide fresh food to over 4,000 households each week. The majority of people we serve are from Maplewood, Oakdale, Woodbury, and the East Side of St. Paul. While we are located in Oakdale, we are open to anyone in need of food, regardless of where they live. In our Today’s Harvest markets, we offer fresh, healthy food donated each day from local grocery stores. The Community Engagement Specialist will work on expanding our food rescue donors, focusing on culturally specific grocers and farms. They will also support volunteer recruitment and engagement, including increasing the number of BIPOC and bilingual volunteers. This work will include creating new volunteer opportunities throughout all of our programs.
