Gardens For Everyone (GFE) helps people grow their own veggies at home by building backyard, raised-bed garden boxes and supporting box recipients as they begin growing food. Priority is given to low to moderate income households, as well as organizations that want to grow food for their community. The builds take place in multiple locations, around the Triangle. This is a fun and rewarding opportunity for small groups and individuals. https://foodshuttle.galaxydigital.com/agency/detail/?agency_id=116465

Volunteers are a critical and valuable resource for our operations and we could not do it all without you. What We Do We are looking for volunteer drivers and driver assistants to deliver freshly prepared meals to summer feeding sites in Raleigh and Durham. Volunteer drivers will report to the Food Shuttle location (1001 Blair Drive, Ste. 120, Raleigh, NC 27603) to pick up meals in food carriers, receive their route, and deliver meals to children and teens at designated sites in Raleigh. These drivers are asked to use their personal vehicles to transport the meals to the sites, whereas, volunteer driver assistants will accompany Food Shuttle staff in our vehicles to Durham. No driving is required for driver assistants Delivering in a Food Shuttle staff vehicle may be an option for those already qualified to drive. Please check in with the Volunteer Team at Volunteers@FoodShuttle.org if this applies to you. If you are interested in driving a staff vehicle and committing to 5 shifts, please let us know and we can look to have you qualified to drive our vehicles. To see more information and images of the food containers, please view our Summer Meals Guide 2024.
