Community Meal at the Hope Center

Save to Favorites

Insight Housing (formerly Berkeley Food & Housing Project) has served a free daily meal to the community since 1970. Join in this tradition in our brand new location - the Hope Center - at 2012 Berkeley Way!

We need volunteers to serve meals Monday-Friday from 2:30-4:30. We have 50-100 visitors on a daily basis. Volunteer tasks include serving meals, packing lunches for our women's shelter and respite program, and light cleaning after community meal concludes at 4 pm.
