Individuals

Please note:

If you require documentation of your volunteer hours for school or for the courts, please go to the required service page.

If you do not require documentation of your hours for school or for the courts, this page is for you!

We appreciate your time and thank you for joining us in the fight to end hunger! As an individual, we thought it would be helpful for you to have some basic information on hand to structure your time during your upcoming volunteer visit.

For your first step, we need you to fill out the individual volunteer application. Once you have submitted an application, we will email you with additional information about how to schedule times to come in to volunteer.

Volunteer shifts:

Morning shift: 9:30am-12:00pm

Afternoon shift: 1:00pm-3:30pm

*Please note: Summer Saturday (June - August) shifts are morning only unless otherwise arranged.

Please remember:

• Volunteers must wear closed toed shoes and comfortable clothing that can get dirty. We can provide rubber gloves upon request.
• Restrooms are located in the front area by the reception desk. You can find the restrooms by following the white line painted on the floor of the warehouse.
• Please do not bring valuables into The Food Bank. We can lock up items upon request; however, we are not responsible for lost or stolen items. If you need to get into the locked cupboard, ask the Reclamation Supervisor or someone in the Volunteer Department.
• Nothing from the Salvage Area or Volunteer Room (including food, drink, or non-food items) may be taken home.
• Eating or drinking is restricted to the Volunteer Room; food or drink may NOT be consumed in the warehouse.
• There are fire escape routes in the Volunteer Room and Salvage Area.
• For your safety, cell phone use is restricted to the Volunteer Room or the front lobby area ONLY.

**Please let the Reclamation Supervisor know if you are leaving the Salvage Area during the shift**
