Volunteer
Volunteering is a great way to help fight hunger in Central Louisiana
We encourage you to join us on your own or enlist a group of friends, family, or coworkers to join us for a volunteer shift. From packing and sorting food, to helping with mobile pantry distributions, we have a variety of opportunities available to our volunteers throughout the week.
