Volunteer Role: Made from the HeART Mondays
Mondays | 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Made from the HeART Mondays is a collaborative cooking volunteer shift where we prepare the “meal of the week” together at the CityHeART Resource Hub. This role is perfect for someone who enjoys being in the kitchen, working as a team, and contributing to something tangible that directly supports our community.

Volunteers arrive at 10:00 AM and participate in our brief morning Hub Huddle, where recipes are introduced and tasks are assigned. All cooking is done with guidance and supervision from the CityHeART Team, and step-by-step recipes are provided. No professional cooking experience is required.

Cooking begins at 10:30 AM. Volunteers work together to follow the recipe, prep ingredients, cook the meal, and assemble portions. By 12:00 PM, all food is packaged, labeled, and the kitchen is fully cleaned and reset.

This role includes:

• Reviewing the recipe and assigned tasks during the Hub Huddle

• Prepping ingredients and following step-by-step instructions

• Cooking collaboratively with support from staff

• Packaging and labeling finished meals

• Washing dishes and sanitizing kitchen surfaces

• Leaving the space organized and ready for the next shift

Made from the HeART is about more than cooking. It is about care, teamwork, and turning shared effort into nourishment for others. If you enjoy structured tasks, hands-on projects, and contributing to a mission-driven kitchen environment, this is a meaningful way to serve.

This position reports to the Program Coordinator or HeARTy Foods Lead.
