HeARTy Foods Thursday Market Volunteer

Join CityHeART every Thursday at the Resource Hub as we receive, organize, and share food with neighbors in our community. This is a relational, hands-on volunteer opportunity rooted in dignity, hospitality, and shared responsibility.

Morning Shift: 10am–12pm
Volunteers begin with our 10am Morning Hub Huddle, where we align on assignments, priorities, and the heart behind the work. The morning team helps receive food donations, sort and organize items, check quality, stock shelves, and prepare the space for our afternoon market.

During this time, our backyard is open to guests who may stop by to enjoy coffee and light refreshments, participate in expressive arts activities, and listen to the live broadcast from CityHeART Radio. Volunteers help create a welcoming and organized environment while supporting both food preparation and hospitality.

Afternoon Shift: 12pm–2pm
Volunteers begin with our 12pm Afternoon Hub Huddle before transitioning into our market style distribution. Neighbors are invited to fill a grocery bag with a variety of available food items. Afternoon volunteers greet guests, restock tables, assist with carrying bags when needed, and help clean and reset the space at the end of the program.

No prior experience is required. Please arrive at your designated volunteer time, either 10am or 12pm, so you can participate in the Hub Huddle and receive your assignment for the day.

This work is not just about distributing food. It is about sharing space, stories, and resources in a way that honors the fullness and dignity of every person who walks through our doors.
