Volunteer: Community Coordinator (Numerous)Pumpkins For Pigs Foundation (PFPF) is a 501.3c focused on reducing food waste in local communities across the US. PFPF started in 2017 with 10 donation sites in Loudoun County with the aim of reducing food waste one pumpkin at a time. Through conversations with donation sites, donors and others, it was clear there was a need and a desire for these services. With each passing year, the list of accepted items expanded. Today, we serve over 500 communities in over 40 states -- 150+ here in Virginia alone. With a conservative estimate of over 700 tons diverted in 2022, we are just getting started and see enormous opportunity to further our impact. Role: Coordinate the collection of donated pumpkins, gourds, hay bales, and other items for your neighborhood, school, office, place of worship, etc. Dates: Oct - Nov 19, 2023 (approx) Location: Your Community (neighborhood, school, office, place of worship, etc.) - anywhere Activities Set the Stage: Work with the BoD (Board of Directors) POC (Point of Contact) to set the following: Drop off spot (where can community members place their donated items) Drop off dates (how many days will community members have to drop off their donations to that spot?) Transportation of donated items (who has a vehicle/capability to transport the donations - or will the donation site pick up) Donation recipient (which farm / animal sanctuary will receive your donations) Delivery Date (what day are you targeting for the donations to be dropped off to the donation site or picked up by the donation site) What help do you need? Be Creative: Work with board member(s) to create a flyer (or similar) to use in physical and/or electronic outlets to invite neighbors, schoolmates, officemates, etc. to bring their left over pumpkins, gourds and other items during the agreed upon timeframe (i.e. drop off your pumpkins, hale bales at the corn of Main & Misty Terrace between Nov 1 and Nov 4 and we will donate them to ABC Farm in Hillsboro on Sunday Nov 5. Contact Fred for more details!). Get the Word Out: Remind your community leading up to the drop off dates. Show Impact: Take photos and share with your neighborhood/school/office the growing donations and final total of each item type (i.e. 8 gourds, 1 hale bale, 39 pumpkins). Take photos at donation site if feasible.
Total Est Time: 10 hours (depends on duration of collection period and if its an adult or student driving the effort)
