Help feed your community with fresh healthy food at Today's Harvest & Open Cupboard. We rely on the hard work of volunteers like you to serve families in need, so this role is perfect for anyone looking for a physically active and fun way to help their community!

The need for nourishing food is still growing, and so is our need for volunteers. We now serve over 4,000 households per week, and the number of families in need is still climbing every week.

To meet the ever-increasing need in the community, we are in need of more volunteers! We are serving more families than ever, and we need YOUR help to keep going! There is a lot to do every day, and we wouldn't be able to keep up without our incredible volunteers.
