Center for Food Action (CFA) works to prevent hunger and homelessness in northern New Jersey. Volunteers support our weekly food distribution program serving Bergen County families.
Volunteers assist with packing food bags, organizing inventory, preparing distribution setup, and supporting staff during guest service. This is a guest-facing role where punctuality and consistency are essential.
Volunteer Commitment (Required):
CFA is an ongoing volunteer program, and we ask volunteers to commit to one shift per week on the same day, at the same time, and at the same location on a consistent, recurring basis. We do not offer one-time-only individual volunteer opportunities, and all sites are closed on weekends.
Physical Requirements:
Volunteering may involve standing for extended periods, bending and reaching, lifting and carrying up to 30 pounds, and working in an active distribution environment. Closed-toe shoes are required.
Volunteers must be 16+ and agree to CFA policies and Code of Conduct.
