What Our Volunteers Do

Our many committed volunteers make it all worthwhile!

Our dedicated volunteers have helped us by giving hope to those living with hunger in Burlington. We could not function at the Burlington Food Bank without our volunteers. Community volunteers, of over 100 men, women and students, have committed thousands of hours every year, since 1991, helping us to fight hunger and feed hope in Burlington.

Volunteers help us by:

Performing various tasks in the warehouse: sorting food, cleaning, organizing, stocking shelves
Staffing our reception desk
Assisting clients with their food selections
Assisting with administrative tasks
Assisting with pickups with donor bins at fire halls and grocery stores
Assisting at special events in support of Burlington Food Bank
Organizing local food drives
Becoming a member of our Board of Directors
Speaking to service clubs and church groups about our impact in the community

Volunteering is not only a great help to us,
it’s also incredibly rewarding for those who give their time.
