Group Volunteer Opportunities

We welcome community groups, businesses, schools, faith-based organizations, and clubs who are interested in serving together! Volunteering as a group is a great way to build teamwork while making a direct impact on the lives of those we serve.

Our programs are best supported by groups of 5–15 participants during our weekday morning hours between (8:30am–12:30pm). The most common opportunities for groups include:

1. Food Pantry program

[This opportunity is also available for an ongoing basis partnership]

• Preparing food pantry bags

Guidelines & Notes

To ensure a positive experience for both volunteers and the community, please note:

• The group size is limited to 15 participants

• Volunteers must be 18+ years old or older

• All participants must complete a screening prior to their service day; therefore, we require the full names and dates of birth of every individual on your group list.

• Group waivers must be signed prior to service day.

• We do not have weekend or evening opportunities available.

• We may occasionally have special events during the holiday season where we can accommodate larger groups [e.g. Thanksgiving meal preparation & Christmas Toy Distribution]

• Scheduling is first come, first served, and requires at least 2 weeks’ notice from preferred date (larger groups may require additional coordination time)
