The Food Closet operates on the generosity of over 90 volunteers, but more are always needed. Will you consider helping? You can volunteer for one or more of the following positions. Training is provided. We also need help a few times a year when large, scheduled food drives take place. Due to confidentiality, schedules, and training, we can not accept school youth volunteers. All positions, with the exception of food pick-ups, have flexible schedules and can work as little or as much you like.
