Project Angel Food - Kitchen Volunteers Preparing Meals

Preparing Meals

Kitchen volunteers join a fun-loving group of compassionate people each day to do everything from chopping, stirring, mixing, baking and packaging meals. You don't even need to know how to cook, only how to take direction from our kitchen chefs. We could use your valuable help!

We have two shifts Monday through Friday: 8:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 - 3:30 p.m. We also have one weekend shift on Sunday from 8:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.

Project Angel Food - Gardening Volunteers

Gardening

Our Urban Garden program makes creative use of vacant plots of city land to grow organic fruits and vegetables for our meals. From tilling, cultivating, planting, weeding and harvesting, volunteers carry out a multitude of tasks and are an integral part of the program's success.

Project Angel Food - Office Assistance and Outreach Volunteers

Office Assistance and Outreach

Administrative tasks are important to our ongoing operations. Our office volunteers help us on an "as needed basis" Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. with data entry, mailings, photocopying and other essential clerical activities.

If you like speaking in front of groups or one-on-one with individuals, you may want to help us spread the word about the work of Project Angel Food and assist in recruiting volunteers. Our Outreach Volunteers often work in teams and attend community events.
