We are aware of Governor Murphy’s announcement that allows fully vaccinated individuals to enter certain business settings unmasked as of June 4, 2021. And, while we are excited about the announcement, we’ve chosen to maintain our current prevention practices to ensure the safety and protection of our staff, volunteers and visitors.

Welcome to Our Volunteer Program!
Our volunteer program offers individuals, families and groups of many sizes a meaningful experience to make a direct impact on hunger in a positive and safe environment.
Last year, our volunteers made close to 40,000 site visits, dedicating more than 79,000 hours to our cause (that’s equivalent to 38 full-time employees). Click the sign-up button to join their ranks in our Hillside warehouse or at off-site events. Our Volunteer FAQs can help you learn more about what to expect during your visit.
We look forward to seeing you at the FoodBank!
