Kitchen Helper
Join the kitchen team with slicing, dicing and packaging nutritious meals for individuals in need!

Our Mission: We remove barriers to health with relentless compassion so that no one faces illness and injustice alone.

Our Vision: Health For All

Looking to connect with a network of peers who share your passion for healthy food and community service? Do you enjoy chopping, cooking, and packaging meals?


Every week our Chicken Soup Brigade Client Care Advocates, Nutritionists, Chefs and Cooks, Warehouse and Distribution staff and regular weekly Volunteers work together to make, package, bag and deliver medically tailored meals and groceries to clients. We serve homebound seniors and people living with serious health conditions across King, Snohomish, and Island County.


Where you come in:
You can help people living with serious illnesses, and have a GREAT time doing it! Every meal in our Kitchen is made from scratch using whole ingredients. Volunteers in our Chicken Soup Brigade Kitchen help prepare and package meals for our clients; slicing, dicing and peeling is the name of the game and a hugely important part of cooking nutritionally specific 'food as medicine’ for our clients.

The Kitchen Helper role is an opportunity to work with a team of fantastic people who love food and nutrition and, to do something very important for our community. No cooking experience is necessary! Our chefs will assign tasks based on each volunteer's skill and comfort level.

Shifts Available:

  • Monday-Friday: 9:30am-12pm, 1:30-4pm
  • Saturday: 10:30am-1pm, 2:30-5pm

If this sounds like a volunteer position for you, we would love to have you join the team!

About Lifelong

Location:

210 S. Lucile Street, SEATTLE, WA 98106, US

Mission Statement

We remove barriers to health with relentless compassion so that no one faces illness and injustice alone.

Description

LIFELONG HAS ALWAYS BEEN AN ORGANIZATION THAT STANDS UP FOR COMMUNITIES FACING ILLNESS AND INJUSTICE.

Everyone deserves the chance to live their healthiest life, but that vision is out of reach for far too many people. For nearly 40 years, Lifelong has fought for marginalized communities with relentless compassion-because no one should have to battle stigma, judgment, or the devastating effects of illness alone. Our wraparound care model supports the whole person by breaking down barriers and improving access to nutritious food, stable housing, and vital health resources for people living with diabetes, HIV, kidney disease, and other life-challenging illnesses. Our community support network fills the gaps in broken systems and ensures that everyone has an equitable opportunity to thrive.
