We Love Volunteers!

The Yuma Community Food Bank relied on more than 10,000 volunteers last year, whose hours totaled 17,927. Seeing so many caring individuals pass through our warehouse throughout the year is incredible. Our various volunteer opportunities offer fun and unique ways for individuals and groups to contribute their time, talents and resources to help our neighbors in need. Volunteering is a great way to make friends, learn something new and have fun while fighting hunger in our community!
