The Impact of Your Volunteer Experience
- Volunteers are the heart and soul of Second Harvest. You bring our mission to life and make up the equivalent of ~40% of our workforce – we literally cannot accomplish our mission without you!
- Help us in our mission to end hunger in Orange County by sorting and packaging donated food items in our food distribution center
- All food is ultimately distributed to individuals and families in need in Orange County
- Together we are creating a future in which no one goes hungry. Ever.
