Olio is an app matching volunteers to local and nearby businesses who have surplus food. Volunteers collect, list on the app, and share it with neighbours.
Experience required
You'll be collecting surplus food, the quantity will vary. You can either walk, bike or take your vehicle for collections. You'll then be communicating through our app and sharing the collections with your nearby requesters.
Training details
Volunteers will need to complete 5 mandatory training modules (online videos and quizz). After that, Olio provides an issue report form, ongoing team support, and squad captains at collection sites.
Restrictions
Minimum age: 18
Open to all. Collections can be heavy and may contain meat/dairy. Must transport food home.
