About
Volunteer for Share's Hot Meals Program
Share provides daily, free meals for the members of our community experiencing homelessness and low-income. Each month we serve over 6,000 meals. Much of the food used in the program is donated by area grocery stores and is prepared each day by volunteers and staff. Volunteers work in a commercial kitchen to assist with food preparation, serving, and cleaning.
Volunteers support the mission of Share by helping to prepare and serve meals every day of the year to nourish our neighbors.
