Give Time

Volunteers contributed more than 50,000 hours in 2009, equivalent to 25 full-time positions. At Missouri's minimum wage, those combined hours were worth more than $362,500! Volunteers do everything from repackaging bulk food into family-sized packages, to sorting canned goods from food drives, to picking apples at an orchard.

Several hundred people also help us with fundraising events including a 5K/10K race, a sporting clay shoot, radiothons, and other activities throughout central and northeast Missouri.

You're invited to volunteer one time or on a regular basis. Come with a group or come by yourself. There's always someone you can team up with at The Food Bank. For a volunteer schedule, Click here or call (573) 474-1020, or (800) 764-3663.
