About RLC:
Rescuing Leftover Cuisine (RLC) helps the hungry by rescuing and donating leftover food to homeless shelters. With the help of more than 8,000 volunteers, we have rescued a cumulative 3 million pounds of leftovers since our launch in 2013. RLC is looking for a paid, long-term Volunteer Recruitment Manager to recruit volunteers for this meaningful cause.
About the position:
The Volunteer Recruitment Manager will reach out to potential volunteers to recruit volunteers to rescue food from RLC partner restaurants and bring that food to the hungry at local RLC partner agencies. The goal for the Volunteer Recruitment Manager will be at least 1 Rescuer Associate per week. Rescuer Associates are individuals who volunteer with RLC for 10 pickups per week.
