Second Harvest Food Bank is in need of happy and loving volunteers at our Mobile Fresh sites!

Mobile Fresh is a direct distribution of free produce and assorted items to those that are low-income and having a difficult time accessing (affording) fresh produce. During the COVID-19 pandemic, our Mobile Fresh events converted to a new drive-through model in order to adhere to health and safety guidelines. With the easing of COVID restrictions, we have converted some of our events back to our former walk-up model. It is indicated for each shift whether the event will be held as a drive-through or walk-up distribution. 

No matter the style in which the event is held, volunteers are absolutely necessary to make each distribution a success! Volunteers help with set-up, distribution, and clean-up. Distributing food to those in need allows our volunteers to witness first-hand the impact of their work on the local community.

Time Involved: Mobile Fresh distribution events take place 1-3x per month, per city. Please check the list of available shifts to see which locations work best for you. Each event takes approximately 2 hours. You can come one time or every time!

Requirements: Volunteers must be able to carry 20+ pounds, bend, and stand for long periods of time in all weather. Closed toed shoes are required for all volunteers. Masks are not required but recommended, as we have a high volume of people who attend these events. Gloves will be provided on site. If you have a smile to share, a positive attitude, and a desire to give - we are looking for you!

GROUPS WELCOMED! We require 2 weeks' minimum advanced notice for the date which your group would like to volunteer for.

Please contact our Volunteer Coordinator at daliahernandez@secondharvest.org or 209-239-2091 with any questions or concerns.

We hope to see you soon!
