Community Food Share Volunteer Information
Volunteers are the lifeblood of CFS. In year 2007, volunteers contributed 36,000 hours of labor! This is the equivalent of 17 full-time employees; more people than we have on our paid staff! If we had to pay for this labor, it would have cost over $600,000 ! Not to mention that it would be impossible to find temporary help that would be available for such odd hours and that would be willing to do such hard work. It is a god-send that these wonderful people donate so much of their precious time to help others. We literally couldn't do it without them!
The benefits of helping are enormous. As a volunteer you are giving back to the community, working with terrific people, and feeling great about being part of the solution.
