Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Community Food Outreach! Volunteers diversify and expand the services that we are able to provide the families and children we serve, and we rely on volunteers to help hurting families. Volunteers from our community support each of our programs. Each day, people like you help us stock our shelves, sort clothing in our thrift center, greet and assist families, and more. Hope truly does begin with you.
