Volunteer
Our volunteers are critical to our work year-round.
Your passion and time are important resources as we work to rescue and deliver food for New Yorkers in need. City Harvest offers a variety of volunteer opportunities in New York City, including participating in food rescue and distribution, providing nutrition education to people of all ages, and more.
Returning volunteers can view our Volunteer Portal for upcoming opportunities.
First-time volunteer? You’ll just need to attend a virtual orientation before joining us at the Food Rescue Center or in the community.
Check out opportunities for children to get involved.
City Harvest requires all volunteers to abide by our updated Volunteer Policies (available on our Volunteer Portal). Read our volunteer FAQ’s.
