Whether they serve lunch to the homeless, bring smiles to a child's face in our youth programs, or ring the bell during the holiday season, our volunteers are critical partners in helping us fulfill our promise of "Doing the Most Good." If you want to make a big impact in your community, you've come to the right place. We welcome groups and individuals to serve in a variety of roles throughout the year. (Description from their website)
Each year, our volunteers generously donate 42,000+ hours of their time to Loaves & Fishes. We are so proud and humbled by their service and commitment to the Bay Area community.
By volunteering with us, you are not only helping us to keep our labor costs down, but you are helping us to meet the significantly increased need for our meal services. Many more individuals are going hungry, and you are helping to remind them that they are cared for and supported. You are feeding their hearts as much as you are feeding their stomachs. We couldn’t be more grateful for your support during these times!
Volunteering with us can bring you many benefits – from learning successful gardening techniques, to having the satisfaction of doing something good for the environment. Students can earn community service credits by spending some time working with us. You will be able to meet new friends and help us maintain the park and Gardens at the same time!
With more than 4,000 volunteers, HSSV is able to save and enhance the lives of thousands of pets and people each year. There are a variety of critical and deeply impactful volunteer roles to choose from based on your age, schedule and preferences. We hope you’ll join us!
