Volunteer With Us

Only through your efforts can we achieve our mission of providing food to people facing hunger and working to advance hunger solutions in our community. We need volunteers every day to help sort and pack food donations, prepare BackPacks for children experiencing hunger, as well as assist with special events and administrative support. When you donate your time to Second Harvest, you become a partner in the fight against hunger in Middle and West Tennessee.
