Donate Time

Volunteers have a hands-on experience sorting food, inspecting, labeling or repackaging donated food.

A typical volunteer shift lasts 2-3 hours. Volunteers are scheduled in advance for a weekday shift between 9:00am – 11:30am or 1:00pm – 3:00pm. Volunteer activities are available at the main warehouse on Fern Valley Road and the CSFP warehouse on Cane Run Road.

Safety is our priority. Please note that volunteers must be at least 13-years-old, and open-toed shoes are not permitted in our warehouse, when handling food. Thank you for your consideration.

Volunteers assist with filing, computer data entry and other essential administrative duties

Our regular business hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30am – 4:30pm.

Pick up bread from local grocery stores. No special license is required to drive a small panel truck, and no heavy lifting is required.

Volunteers support the food bank’s special events team during events, activities and food drives.

Events happen throughout the year and often occur on weekends and evenings.
