VOLUNTEER

Fish & Loaves is powered by Volunteers.

Fish & Loaves Community Food Pantry is a volunteer organization. More than three hundred volunteers from area churches, community organizations, and businesses serve without compensation, apart from the pleasure and pride in knowing that they are making a difference in their local communities. There are hands-on volunteer opportunities at Fish & Loaves for almost all ages in our store, warehouse, or office and our other programs.

Volunteer time is scheduled to accommodate your availability and the needs of the pantry in any given week. Church, community, and business groups can also request special projects suited to both their abilities and availability.
