Volunteer Your Time
Over 300 volunteers manage and operate the Mission Food Hub! 60% of our volunteers used to stand in the lines as food recipients. From delivery drivers, food baggers, to pedestrian traffic support, we invite you to volunteer!
We take the health of our volunteers and community seriously. No one will be permitted into our facility without meeting our safety requirements and upholding our standards. We enforce pre-entrance health check questionnaire, social distancing, mask and glove wearing, etc.
Join us in helping to feed 7,000 families a week!
