Help families in your community! Volunteer @ YWCA Food Bank!

Save to Favorites

Located in Central Seattle, the YWCA Central Area Food Bank distributes food to families from the community and YWCA client families. Open each Wednesday, the food bank serves over 75 families and hands out over 2,500 lbs. of food each shift. The food bank meets a vital need for many low income families that struggle to meet all of their financial obligations and provide food for their families.

For this event, volunteers will help the food bank receive, stock supplies and prepare for the arrival of the families.
