Thank you for coming to pack food with us!
NOTE: To maintain high show-rates of volunteers, we separate each month of packing events into two concurrent volunteer opportunities. There are portions of each event for the "Individuals Only" posting and the remaining portion for "Teams Only" posting.
Team leaders should limit their team sizes to ensure no volunteer spots go unfilled. It is always better to underestimate! If you are wishing to schedule a team for 25 or more, please contact Liam Green, Volunteer Coordinator (lgreen@everymeal.org).
Please arrive 10-15 minutes early for your packing event so we can start on time.
Make sure to wear close-toes shoes.
First, we'll have a brief orientation in the volunteer center. Next we'll form assembly lines and pack non-perishable food items for people in our community who need it!
We are so excited to have you come pack with us! Find info on what to expect here.
Health and Safety
Masks are currently not required but are encouraged if that is your preference.
If you feel ill or have flu-like symptoms, please stay home. Read more about the precautions we're taking and what we require HERE.
Trying to register multiple people?
Make sure you are in the "Teams Only" registration first!
Check out our helpful instructions on creating a team here.
Struggling to register?
You may need to sign our new Volunteer Release Form first. This can be found under "Qualifications" by clicking the arrow beside your initials in the top right corner of your screen.
What about Youth Volunteers?
Youth Volunteers have two options:
- Create your own account and register (if you're 13 or older)
- OR you can come with a signed Volunteer Release Form signed by a parent or legal guardian. Form can also be signed on-site.
- More info on youth volunteering found here.
What if all the volunteer spots are full?
You can add yourself to the waitlist. NOTE: The waitlist is a first come, first serve basis when space becomes available. If you are looking to squeeze into a full event as an individual or smaller team, please reach out to lgreen@everymeal.org (Volunteer Coordinator - Liam Green). You can also go to the public packing page and click the green button that says "BECOME A FAN" and you'll be the first to know via email when we post new opportunities.
Thank you for being a hunger fighter!
