  • Join us at St. Matthew's Lutheran Church every week to help us sort through our rescued food before it goes out to feed families in our community!

  • We need many hands to ensure that the food we provide to our neighbors is of good quality. All discarded food will be used as animal feed or compost. Help us towards our mission of no food wasted and no bellies empty!

  • No experience needed! 

  • Volunteers under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
