INDIVIDUAL VOLUNTEERS
Individuals are welcome to volunteer at the Food Bank. Individuals will join a group volunteer activity for their volunteer shift.
If you are a first-time volunteer, you will be asked to create a log-in and password, which you can use for future projects. All of our projects, including special events, will be listed on the registration website.
Please note: groups of less than five people should register as individuals for the same project, not as a group. As long as you sign up for the same date and shift time, you will still get to work together.
Middle and high school students are welcome to sign up for service hours via the Food Bank’s normal registration procedures (see below). However, the Food Bank is not responsible for arranging student schedules. Scheduling for volunteer shifts are first come, first served, so we advise students to plan well in advance in order to complete their service hours before the deadline.
SIGN UP ONLINE
Volunteers MUST print and sign the Volunteer Waiver Form before your volunteer shift. Completed forms must be brought with you on the day of your visit.
