City Food Bank
Each year, the City Food Bank gives food to more than
36,000 hungry people in our county. Some are lowincome families. Others are unemployed. Still others
have had their homes destroyed by fires. As a
volunteer, you will first greet people who bring food to
the Food Bank. Next, you will help unload the food
from cars and write down what was given. Then your
biggest job will be to sort food and pack it into boxes.
To participate, you will need to complete a half-hour
training class that will count toward your service hours.
