Become a volunteer

We need YOU! Support your neighbors today with VEAP.

Looking for a way to directly support your community? Now more than ever, you can make a difference! VEAP 100% depends on our volunteers in everything that we do. If you’re motivated to serve then join us today in keeping food on our friends’ and neighbors’ tables.

Our opportunities:

  • Welcome everyone. All ages and skill sets are needed! Youth ages 16+ are able to volunteer independently. Children ages 9-15 are welcome to volunteer, but must be accompanied by an adult.
  • Don’t require experience. We’ll provide all necessary training, and make sure you feel confident while serving with us.
  • Are fun! With a variety of positions available, we will help you find your best fit.

VEAP is open for volunteers Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. You can find in-depth position descriptions on our volunteer resource page.

Note: Please keep in mind you will not receive a confirmation email or phone call immediately upon submission of your volunteer application.  We will make every effort to respond within 3-5 business days.  Because we work with vulnerable populations, we ask you to wait until you have received communication from the Volunteer Department before coming to VEAP.

 

Complete the applications below in order to get started. We ask volunteers 18+ to first attend a required volunteer orientation prior to selecting a role. Youth volunteers can get started right away in our food pantry.
