Your contribution will make a significant impact, and your efforts will directly support those who need it most.

    Volunteers will assist with organization and sorting of commodities (food). Help with the preparation and packaging of food or other items for distribution. Greet and guide clients as they pick up their supplies. Maintain an orderly and safe environment through the distribution process. Follow health and safety guidelines to ensure the well-being of both the clients and volunteers.

    • Event can be held at organization location(s)

    Thank you for your interest in volunteering with our organization! We’re excited to hear that you’re eager to get involved. Last year, Family Service Association (FSA) served over one million meals to seniors in our community, offering both congregate and home-delivered meals to those in need. Honestly, we would not be able to reach so many people in need without the assistance of our volunteers.

    Please Contact the Site Senior Nutrition Supervisor to find out more about the Volunteer Opportunity and available schedule.
