Are you looking for a practical volunteering opportunity, one that will have an immediate and tangible positive impact for you or your organisation and for members of our community who need support?
Our organisation can only operate with the support of our dedicated volunteers, without their significant support it wouldn’t be possible for us to do the work we do. If you would like to join our volunteer team read on.
At Foodshare we have 100 volunteers who support the work we do, last year our wonderful volunteers contributed 6395 hours of time and talent to support our community. Our volunteers say their experience with us is both rewarding and lots of fun and has allowed them to make many new friends.
We have a range of flexible volunteering options for you to choose from depending on your interest, skills and the time you have available, and we aim to make to process really easy for you.
Step 1 – review the roles we have listed below, noting all our volunteering roles are flexible and we will always chat with you about what best suits you and your lifestyle.
Step 2 – call our executive officer Amanda on 0428 197 715 to chat about your preferred option so we can give you more information.
Step 3 – email [email protected] to request our Volunteer Application Form, fill in the form and return via email when you have time.
As a new volunteer you will enjoy a “come and try” session to help you get a feel for our warehouse operations, you can then decide if we are the volunteer option for you.
Once confirmed you will receive a Workplace Safety and Safe Food Handling overview as part of your orientation to our warehouse procedures.
Note - we enjoy lots of volunteering enquiries and are always happy to record your name and phone number as our landscape of volunteers constantly changes.
Our corporate volunteering program allows local business and enterprise to give back to their community in a practical hands on way, to discuss corporate volunteering options please feel free to contact us for a chat.
We would like to thank our current corporate volunteering partners whose staff join us one day a week:
