Love getting fresh food to our hungry neighbors? Spend time with Second Harvest Heartland at one of our fresh produce distributions. When you volunteer at a fresh produce distribution, you sort food, set up food stations, provide friendly service and put food directly into the hands of our hungry neighbors. Some volunteers may also assist with client tracking. This is a great opportunity for individuals and small groups to serve in a fun and energetic environment! We ask that all volunteers be 13 and older for this event; youth must volunteer with an adult.
The distributions at this site will take place the 2nd and 4th Friday of the month from 10:30am-1:30pm through 10/25/19.
To officially register for a volunteer shift, please contact us or visit the Second Harvest Heartland webpage directly - 2harvest.org/volunteer and click on the Schedule a Shift button. Select metro wide to see available opportunities and sign up. We look forward to having you volunteer!

Mission Statement
The mission of Second Harvest Heartland is to end hunger through community partnerships. At Second Harvest Heartland, our volunteer partners do more than enrich our work, they ground us to our mission of ending hunger together. We integrate volunteers into all aspects of creating and delivering solutions that will free our neighbors of hunger.
Description
More than a food bank, Second Harvest Heartland is a leading partner in the policies and programs that work to end hunger, like SNAP, school meals and senior nutrition programs, and we’re an innovator in the areas where food can be the solution, like FOODRx and Minnesota Central Kitchen.
Second Harvest Heartland is a member of Feeding America, a national network of more than 200 food banks serving every state in the United States. Membership means access to millions of pounds of surplus food and grocery donations from manufacturers and producers throughout the country.
Working with our network of partners, volunteers and donors as well as people like you, our 90,000+ square feet of dry, refrigerator and freezer space is constantly accepting and distributing donations. Our fleet of trucks travels nearly half a million miles a year, picking up food donations and delivering them to local food shelves, soup kitchens, homeless shelters, senior community centers and children's after school programs. Each year we distributed more than 100 million meals to our partners in hunger-relief. Learn more at 2harvest.org.
