Volunteers Needed! 

Help nourish young minds with the Food for Learning Program

Prepare healthy meals and snacks. No experience necessary! Whether you’re retired, have a flexible schedule, or just want to give back to your community, your time can help fuel both bodies and brains.

Student nutrition programs are about more than just meals — they provide the nutrition students need to learn, grow, and thrive. We’re looking for compassionate, dependable volunteers to help ensure every child has access to a healthy lunch.

Just 2–3 hours a week can make a world of difference in the lives of local students.

 

Volunteer duties may include:

  • Practicing safe food handling and maintaining clean workspaces

  • Preparing and serving meals or replenishing snack bins

  • Assisting with food prep, setup, and clean-up

  • Supporting the site Food for Learning coordinator with purchasing healthy food

 

As a Food for Learning volunteer, you’ll have the opportunity to:

  • Experience firsthand the powerful impact that healthy, nutritious foods have on students’ learning and well-being

  • Contribute to the development of healthy eating habits

  • Help support increased student achievement

  • Interact with children in a meaningful way

  • Feel the joy and fulfillment that comes from community involvement

 

Please note that a Vulnerable Sector Check through the OPP will be required.
