Volunteer Opportunities
The Josephine County Food Bank thrives on the support of our volunteers. Our mission is only possible through the hard work and support of our volunteers, who generously donate their time and energy to ensure that our community has access to healthy food.

Pop-up Pantries
We run two pop-up pantries in Wolf Creek and Kerby and need volunteers to help with food distribution at these events.

Volunteer shifts are available for court-mandated or other types of community service requiring formal verification.
