For the safety of their volunteers, clients and sponsors, Food Finders has enacted several policies focused on safety. Sites will open 15 minutes before service begins; anyone who arrives before the site opens will be asked to leave and return at the appropriate time. Clients must provide their own box or bag to carry food home in, as Food Finders is not able provide carrying containers.
No smoking is allowed within 50 feet of the food distribution, including while waiting in line to receive food. Obscene gestures or language will not be tolerated; fighting or other aggressive behavior will not be tolerated; you may only go through the line and receive food once; and you must leave the site once you receive food.
