Make a Difference in Your Community Today

At Feed the Need Missions, we want you to know that anyone is welcome! And yes, that goes for the folks we’re helping and also those who want to roll up their sleeves and volunteer.

You see, we’re not just about providing a hot meal, we are also about creating a community where people from all walks of life come together. It doesn’t matter where you’re from or what your story is – if you’ve got a heart for helping, you’re exactly who we’re looking for.

Our volunteers are the heartbeat of what we do. Each week, our sites run 100% thanks to these amazing folks. Whether flipping burgers, handing out napkins, or simply sharing a smile, there’s always a spot for you to jump in.

We are always looking for volunteers at our weekly sites, special events, and different programs we run in various locations. If you want to know what’s specifically needed in your area, just reach out to your local site coordinator. Or if you’re up for it, swing by one of our weekly gatherings and join right in!

A big thanks to all our volunteers – you are making a huge impact across our communities!
