Volunteering is a great way for couples to spend quality time together & do good.

It doesn't matter if you've been together 3 months or 30 years, there's something fun & special about getting in the kitchen together to make something good. Meals are always better when made with love.

Volunteer shifts generally revolve around tfixed meal times, however couples have the opportunity to build their own schedules to help as frequently as they want to.

Meals Times

  • Breakfast: Served @8:30 am
  • Lunch: Served @ 12 pm
  • Dinner: Served @ 5:30 pm

Shift length is flexible and depends on what you want to do and how much time you have to share. We ask that volunteers arrive no earlier than 7 am.
