Opportunity Details
Food Pantry Distribution- St. Athanasius
Help Seeds of Hope achieve their mission is to seek food justice - equal, affordable access to healthy, nutritious food as they work to replace a scarcity mindset with one of abundance.
Why: Food insecurity remains a pressing need in our community, and showing up consistently makes a real difference. By volunteering at St. Athanasius, you are directly supporting families by helping ensure fresh, healthy produce reaches those who need it most, right in their neighborhood. The work is hands-on, immediate, and deeply meaningful.
Who: This opportunity is led by Seeds of Hope, a nonprofit organization dedicated to alleviating hunger and food insecurity across the greater Los Angeles area. Through partnerships with local communities and volunteer support, Seeds of Hope works to recover, distribute, and share fresh, healthy food with families in need. Their ongoing efforts help build more resilient, nourished communities.What to Expect:
- Volunteers arrive every Friday at 7:00 AM to assist with setting up for the distribution.
- Food distribution takes place from 8:00 AM–10:00 AM.
- Volunteers help hand out produce to community members, sort fruits and vegetables, separate good produce from spoiled items, and break down boxes.
- This is an outdoor event, so please come prepared for early-morning weather conditions and comfortable physical activity.
- Teamwork is essential, and volunteers are involved in all stages of setup, distribution, and cleanup.
- No prior experience is necessary—just motivation, reliability, and a willingness to help.
- Volunteers must be at least 18 years old to volunteer.
