Lifting Lives One Hand at a Time
Come Volunteer!
It is only through generous investment of time and talent that we can lift the lives of struggling families in our community. Our volunteers ensure the smooth daily operation of our campus, so that our financial resources can be utilized in the most effective way possible.
In 2025, a remarkable 70,777 hours of service valued at $2,258,494 were recorded by our volunteers. We simply could not operate without you! Individual United Against Poverty volunteers assist with everything from stocking shelves in our Member Share Grocery Program to organizing the food pantry and staffing our welcome desk.
We welcome individual volunteers and groups of all sizes. Groups may include faith-based, schools, community groups, civic clubs, organizations, and more. We have flexible options to accommodate all ages and abilities each day of the week. All you need to do is complete the application below!
*Volunteers must be at least 13 years of age to participate in regular on-campus volunteer opportunities. All volunteers under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent, guardian, or approved chaperone at all times. An exception is made for Family Volunteer Night, which welcomes volunteers of all ages.
