How You Can Make a Difference

Every week, our volunteers come together to transform donated food into nutritious meals for our community. No matter your experience level or available time, there’s a meaningful way for you to contribute to our Weekly Meal Service.

Cooking Team

Join our kitchen crew to help prepare delicious, nutritious meals from donated ingredients. You'll work alongside experienced volunteers to sort, prep, and cook food that will nourish dozens of community members. Whether you're an experienced chef or just getting started in the kitchen, we'll teach you everything you need to know.

Serving Team

Be the welcoming face our guests see when they arrive for a meal. Our serving team creates a warm, cafeteria-style dining experience where everyone feels valued and respected. You'll help plate and serve food, interact with guests, and ensure everyone gets a hearty meal. This role is perfect for people who enjoy connecting with others and creating a positive atmosphere.

Floater Team

Our versatile support crew helps wherever needed most. Floaters assist with setup before service, help both cooking and serving teams during busy periods, manage cleanup afterward, and handle unexpected tasks that arise. This role offers variety and is ideal for volunteers who like staying active and adapting to different needs throughout the service.

What to Expect

Weekly Meal Service: We serve every Monday, excluding some holidays. Join us weekly, monthly, or whenever your schedule allows.
Training Provided: New volunteers receive orientation and hands-on training.
Community Impact: Help serve 100s of meals each week to neighbors in need.

Yes, group volunteering is encouraged! If you’re bringing more than four people, please contact us in advance so we can accommodate your group.

The minimum age for volunteers is 12 years. Volunteers aged 12-15 must be accompanied by an adult guardian at all times. Volunteers under 18 must have a signed parental waiver, which includes an acknowledgment of the waiver’s terms (assumption of risk, release of liability, and photo policy) on behalf of the minor. Parents or guardians will also commit to supervising the young volunteer and ensuring they follow all guidelines and conduct standards.

If you need to cancel, please let us know as soon as possible canceling the shift online, or by emailing or calling us. This helps us ensure we have enough volunteers for each shift.
