While many enjoy summer vacations, the need for food assistance in our community does not take a break. Second Harvest Food Bank Santa Cruz County urgently seeks volunteers to join us every Saturday throughout the summer to help sort and pack food for the following week’s distributions.
We need your help to ensure that 65,000 people in our county continue to receive the food they need each month. Volunteers are crucial to our mission, and we need 20 volunteers for each shift (that’s 40 volunteers every Saturday!) at our Watsonville warehouse, located at 800 Ohlone Pkwy. There are two shifts to choose from:
- Early Bird Shift: 7:45 AM – 11:00 AM
- Late Riser Shift: 11:15 AM – 2:30 PM
No experience is necessary, and volunteers can sign up for one or multiple shifts. The minimum age to volunteer is 13.
