We love our volunteers.png

Second Harvest has volunteer opportunities nearly every day.

 

Whether you choose to help in the Community Meals kitchen packing up trays for children and seniors; inspect donations in the warehouse; catch rays and tend beds in the Fitzgerald Teaching Garden (seasonally); or help out in the office, you’ll be part of a community of people working together to feed hope, health, and opportunity...because everyone deserves to eat.

Once you've signed up for a volunteer account with Bloomerang Volunteers, we encourage you to download the mobile app to make your check in (and future sign up) experiences even faster. (The app is available for free on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.)
