What does a volunteer do?

Warehouse volunteer roles include sorting and stocking food, packing hampers, checking food for expiry dates, cleaning, and some heavy lifting as required. These volunteers are important in keeping our operations running smoothly and keep up with the demand!

Occasionally we also have opportunities for volunteers to assist us in collecting donations from the grocery store bins, as well as assist with Mobile Pantry deliveries, so keep an eye out for those!

Volunteers are also extremely important part of our various fundraising events throughout the year, with a wide range of tasks dependent on the event (ex: food drives, festivals, golf tournaments, trade shows, etc.)

What does a volunteer do?

All volunteer applications are located on a online database that allows us to recruit, coordinate, and track our volunteers better and more efficiently! Instead of filling out our paper form, all you need to do now is create an account online and easily sign up for time slots! This system is used to bring the volunteer community of RMWB into one local hub, where you can find roles that best suite you with several organizations in town!

Community Service and Large Group Volunteer opportunities are available and can be arranged by emailing comm@woodbuffalofoodbank.com or calling 780-743-1125 ext. 228.
