General Sorting: Organizing shelf-stable items.
Produce Rescue Center: Sorting refrigerated fruits and vegetables.
Mixed Refrigerated Sorting: Sorting and organizing frozen and refrigerated goods.
Moco Food Bank - Produce Rescue
Montgomery County Food Bank serves our neighbors throughout Montgomery County who may not have access to sufficient nutritious food, and we need YOU! We distribute about 10 million meals each year, and couldn't do it without our wonderful volunteers. Every day is a different experience, but most volunteer shifts include food sorting, non-food sorting, box building, or distribution. Want to get involved?
Each individual wanting to volunteer MUST sign up online with an individual account, including parents and children. Volunteers must be at least 7 years old to participate in most shifts. Those volunteers between the ages of, 7-15 (as well as special needs) must be accompanied by a participating adult. Produce Rescue Center and Protein Pack shifts require volunteers be at least 12 years of age (accompanied by an adult). Closed-toe shoes are required (no Crocs or slippers).
Angel Reach
Many children and youth in our community are living in foster care, kinship homes, or on the streets, placing them at high risk for homelessness, incarceration, poverty, early pregnancy, and other long-term challenges. Angel Reach works to break this cycle through programs that support and empower these at-risk young people as they transition toward stable, hopeful, and opportunity-filled lives.
Current volunteer opportunities include tutoring young adults, assisting with life skills workshops, providing transportation support, and helping with community outreach events.
Sleep in Heavenly Peace
At Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP), we believe a bed is a basic need that supports a child’s physical, emotional, and mental well-being. When we discovered the need for beds extended far beyond our neighborhoods, we stepped up as a national organization addressing a nationwide problem. SHP thrives because of passionate volunteers dedicated to getting kids off the floor and into safe, comfortable beds. In just a few hours, volunteers can make a lasting impact on the lives of many children in their community. We welcome volunteers to help build bunk beds, deliver beds, advocate for our mission, and even start new chapters in unserved areas.
