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.
As a product recovery volunteer, you’re helping ensure all the food we distribute is safe, healthy and high quality. You’ll inspect, clean, sort, box and make food donations ready for distribution to Partner Agencies and the families they serve.
