Volunteer to Nourish your Community

To meet the ever-increasing need in the community, we are in need of more volunteers! CCEFS relies on the hard work of generous and dedicated volunteers like you for everything we do.

We are serving more families than ever, and we need YOUR help to keep going! There is a lot to do every day, and we wouldn’t be able to keep up without our incredible volunteers.

We need your help to to pick up rescued food, sort and stock donations, and help serve families in need. We ask that most volunteers commit to serving two or more shifts per month, though many of our volunteers serve more than once a week. Please keep in mind that most positions at the food shelf require being on your feet on a concrete floor throughout your shift.
