Looking for an opportunity to help at our Food Rescue facility? Food Finders owes much of its continued success to our dedicated network of volunteers! Everyone who is involved, whether on a regular or occasional basis, has a role in reducing hunger and is essential to sustaining our program. As little as an hour of your time a month or week can make a huge difference. We have no age restriction, although kids under 16 must be joined by a parent or guardian.

We have an ongoing need for volunteers to help us sort and box non-perishable food/hygiene items we receive through our Food Drives and for our Food 4 Kids program.
You can even involve your children and make it a family volunteer activity OR as a team building activity for you and your employees.

During the school year, Food Finders’ provides boxes of non-perishable food items to 47 local Long Beach schools. This donated and purchased food, packed and delivered by a team of volunteers, provides enough for 4-6 meals per family over the weekend in an effort to bridge the hunger gap many children experience when school meals are not available. The program is supported by volunteers who pack the food boxes and deliver the boxes to the schools every Thursday and Friday during the school year.
