About Volunteering Ideas for Food Bank

The Food Bank receives hundreds of applications a year for volunteering. We appreciate that so many want to give their time to help those in need. However, due to space constraints, the Food Bank limits the number of volunteers that can volunteer at one time. Therefore, if we are unable to accommodate you or your group, consider organizing a Food Drive. We can help you by sending materials to assist you in your collection.
