Have a few hours to spare? We’re currently looking for volunteers to help with our Food Rescue Program.

🚗 Volunteer Drivers
We need drivers to pick up food rescue donations for a few hours in the morning on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. You don’t need to be available for all three days — even helping one morning a week makes a difference!

We’re also looking for volunteers to help sort and process rescued food on Tuesday and Friday mornings.

Your time helps us rescue good food and get it into the hands of people in our community who need it.

Interested? Complete our volunteer application form online, or leave us a message at 705-646-0114 and we’ll get back to you.

Please share — the right volunteer might be someone you know! 💚
