Food Drive Volunteer - Guerneville

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Food For Thought

We hold monthly food drives at Safeway in downtown Guerneville, as well as 13 other grocery stores in Sonoma County. Volunteers stand at the doors of a grocery store and greet customers as they enter, telling them about Food For Thought and specific items we most need that week.

Here are few great reasons to become a Food Drive Ambassador:
  • Short Shifts - ONLY 2.5 Hours!
  • The Buddy System - bring a friend or family member! Food Drives are fun and social.
  • Family Friendly - kids welcome when accompanied by an adult
  • Teenager Friendly - we love teenagers! We do work with some local Interact Clubs and are always glad for group or individual volunteers. We enjoy WRITING RECOMMENDATIONS for steady volunteers.
  • Flexibility - you can volunteer as your schedule permits. No obligation or commitment.
  • Location - we hold food drives near you! From Guerneville to Sonoma, Northern Santa Rosa to Petaluma, we are just around the corner from you.

About Food For Thought

Mission Statement

To foster health and healing with food and compassion

Description

Food For Thought is a nonprofit organization that provides lifesaving nutrition support to low-income people living with COVID-19, HIV and other serious illnesses across Sonoma County. For more than 30 years, we have engaged in service to our community to provide healthy food to our neighbors in need. A group of friends in Guerneville founded FFT in 1988 amidst the AIDS epidemic to provide groceries to our seriously ill neighbors. Over time, we have shifted our focus from providing end-of-life care to providing comprehensive nutrition services, and we have expanded our eligibility to those affected by a wide range of serious illnesses.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, demand for our programs has skyrocketed. In 2020, FFT brought healthy food to more than 4,000 people in Sonoma County.
