For our neighbors getting help from our mobile food pantries, a welcoming face and a kind word can make a world of difference. Help our clients get the healthy food they need and the respect they deserve.
This summer, we are seeking 3,000 volunteers to help us create 3,000 meals each day to serve children in need. Preparation of these meals is not possible without support from dedicated community volunteers. Join us for our Summer Meals That Matter 'Volunteer Challenge' and you can make a difference in a child's day.
Help make summer meals that nourish kids & teens in our community. Volunteers are urgently needed this time of year.
Asking for help can be the hardest thing folks have to do. We rely on volunteers to ensure our mobile food pantries are welcoming, respectful places for clients to get the help they need.
Mobile Pantry volunteer shifts are offered in the morning and afternoon, Monday through Saturday. Please review available shift opportunities to register yourself as an individual.
