YOUR LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE BEGINS HERE.
The Volunteer Commitment
We recognize that our volunteers have busy schedules and other commitments. We are grateful for whatever time someone can devote to us! We will work with each volunteer to arrange a day and time of the week that fits with our volunteer needs and the volunteer’s schedule. Volunteer opportunities include working in our kitchen and Community Cafés, Community Market, mobile food pantries, Meals on Wheels, the Able Garden and more!
