How to Help

Volunteer

woman-volunteerIt takes more than food to make a food bank run. The FoodBank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties relies on volunteer support to assist with food drives, sorting donations, filling agency orders and bulk mailing preparation. Some volunteers contribute their professional or trade skills.

Volunteers are the energy and spirit of the FoodBank.  We strive to make every aspect of volunteering enjoyable, so please consider joining our volunteer team.

Please review the Volunteer Guidelines and Volunteer Opportunities, then download a Volunteer Application Form and:

  • mail it in to have us contact you, or
  • call or email our Volunteer Coordinator to schedule a time for an interview.

For questions about Volunteer Guidelines or Opportunities, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator.

We can’t do it without you!

Mix, Mingle and Sort

A Volunteer Evening

Come and participate in this excellent opportunity to meet others while helping those in our local communities.
