Volunteers are the backbone of our non-profit.
We offer a variety of opportunities for individuals/groups to get involved to make a difference in the lives of those we serve.
PHONE VOLUNTEERS:
- Work anonymously from home interviewing (by phone) clients in need
- Use the FISH network to arrange for food or other aid
- Typically 1 day a month
- Training is provided and advisors are available for support
SERVICE VOLUNTEERS:
- Pick up/sort food donations
- Write grant proposals
- Serve on FISH Steering Committee
- Promote volunteer/fundraising efforts
- Liaison with local groups, businesses, churches, etc.
FISH volunteers represent a range of ages, cultures, backgrounds, faiths and experiences. Some examples:
> Seniors are able to work from home via phone to aid needy neighbors and stay in touch with the community.
>Families or scout groups work together gathering/sorting non-perishable food.
NEW VOLUNTEERS (individuals or families/groups working together) are always welcome and much needed. The commitment is nominal and the rewards are great!
