Volunteer

Volunteering at the Food Closet is a powerful way to give back to your community, make a direct impact on food insecurity, and help families facing food insecurity.  It’s more than just handing out food—it’s about offering hope, kindness, and support to those facing tough times. Plus, it’s a rewarding experience where you can meet amazing people, gain new skills, and be part of something bigger than yourself. Join us in making a difference!
