Look at all these bags!

Souper Bowl of Caring is in full swing, food donations are coming in at a steady pace and Central Texans are purchasing pre-packaged bags of food at their local Randalls, H-E-B and Central Market.

Within the last few weeks, we’ve received nearly 400,000 pounds of food. Our warehouse can only hold so much food, and we’re running out of space to put it all. Now we need your help to get food out the door. 

Each tote can be filled with at least 1,000 pounds of food.

As a volunteer, you’ll help inspect, clean, sort, box and make donations ready for distribution to Partner Agencies and their clients. We accept volunteers as young as 8.

Volunteer shifts

• Monday – Saturday, 9 a.m. – noon

Volunteer With Your Family

Volunteer With Your Workplace

By working together on a community focused project, employees reap the benefits of community involvement, pride and a sense of accomplishment. You may also be able to double or triple your impact with corporate matching gifts. Contact your human resources representative to find out how to turn your volunteer hours into financial gifts to feed hungry Central Texans. To schedule your workplace group to volunteer, contact Emily DeMaria at edemaria[at]austinfoodbank.org.

Hunger can’t wait. Please sign up today.
