Volunteering together is a great team-building activity! We welcome businesses, organizations, faith and community groups to volunteer at our warehouse, with our Mobile Food Pantries and through food drives. The Foodbank of Southern California has many opportunities that align with your philanthropic goals and provide your staff a chance to make a real difference in the lives of children, adults, seniors and families.
There are team volunteer opportunities on-site at our warehouse and our mobile pantries. Volunteers in the warehouse help to sort and assemble Family Food Boxes to be distributed to families through after-school programs. At our mobile pantries, volunteers help to distribute food directly in the community. Shifts are available weekdays. We welcome groups of 4-15 volunteers.
