Opportunity Details
2026 CCCS St. Cecilia's Mandarin Speaker
Who We Are
Catholic Charities Community Services Feeding Our Neighbors is our emergency food program. They distribute millions of meals to individuals and families who cannot afford to visit a local supermarket or grocery store. We typically provide a three to seven-day supply of groceries based on family size. Our food pantries, which are set up like supermarkets, allow those in need to stretch their budgets and prepare nutritious meals with fresh produce, meat, poultry, and nonperishable food items.
St. Cecilia's has a large Mandarin-speaking client population. CCCS would love support in translation and interpretation to make their experience at the pantry as seamless and dignified as possible.
