Volunteer: Morning Kitchen Team (Shadow Shift)Why This Matters
Since Hurricane Helene, Baptists on Mission has been serving Western North Carolina by rebuilding and repairing homes. Every volunteer who swings a hammer or clears debris begins their day with a meal prepared by this kitchen. When you serve here, you are not “helping in a kitchen.” If the meals stop, the work slows. Your role directly impacts how many homes get restored. What You’ll Do (Shadow Shift – Training Focus)This is a learning shift designed to onboard consistent volunteers into the rhythm of the kitchen. You will: Shadow the Kitchen Manager and experienced volunteers Assist in preparing breakfast Help assemble sandwiches for volunteer lunches Set out and serve meals Support kitchen cleanup and reset You will not be left alone to figure it out. This is structured learning with hands-on responsibility. Who This Is ForWe are looking for dependable YMCA members with basic cooking confidence — not professional chefs, but individuals comfortable preparing food without constant supervision. This is best suited for someone who: Wants to commit consistently Takes ownership Understands that small details (timing, prep, cleanliness) matter Spots are limited to build a reliable team. If you want to directly strengthen the people rebuilding Swannanoa — this is where you start. Agency: Baptists on Mission Why This Matters
