Volunteer
While we have a hard-working, passionate and dependable staff…they can’t do it all. Our volunteers are a vital component in keeping our programs running successfully.
A primary volunteer opportunity that we have is serving meals at our Community Kitchen. We serve a meal every Monday through Friday from 4:30 to 6:00pm, and need five or six volunteers a night to serve that meal. The food is already provided. Volunteers should arrive no later than 4:15 to help set up and stay until about 7:00 to help with cleaning the kitchen and dining area.
Other volunteer opportunities include: working in the pantry, answering phones, assisting us with our monthly mailings, and job placement assistance.To find out how you can help, please visit our Contact Us page.
We can sometimes use volunteer help in our Food Pantries. Learn more by clicking here.
We often receive calls from grade schools and high schools looking for service projects for their classes. We normally do not have any service projects to accommodate a whole class, but on occasion we could accommodate smaller numbers. Except for serving in the soup kitchen, we do not have any volunteer opportunities in the evening or weekend.
