Volunteer

You can volunteer as often as you would like! We love to host individuals, as well as groups of many sizes. All training and orientation is done on site, and all materials are provided. No previous experience is required! 

• Individual shifts: Each volunteer must create a user account by clicking on the Individual Registration button. After you create your user account, you may begin signing up for volunteer opportunities. Volunteers must register for shifts in advance; no walk-ins accepted.
• Group shifts: Groups of four or more volunteers must fill out the Group Registration form.
• Age requirements at the warehouse: 8+ with an adult or 14+ alone.
• Age requirements at the Community Kitchen: 12+ with an adult or 14+ alone.
• If you are tracking hours for school or court, or will have a coach or observer with you during your shift, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator at 734-761-2796 prior to registering.
• We often snap photos of our volunteers & visitors at our sites. Please know that by visiting our facilities, you consent to Food Gatherers photographing and using your image and likeness.

The Community Kitchen and Warehouse are open for a limited number of volunteers. Please sign-up using the Individual Registration form to see a list of available shifts.

All volunteers will be asked these questions before the start of their shift. If you answer “yes” to any of the following, we will not be able to host you as a volunteer at this time.

1. In the last 48 hours, have you had symptoms of sore throat, diarrhea, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, loss of taste or smell, nausea or vomiting, congestion or runny nose, fever, cough, or shortness of breath?
2. In the past 14 days, have you tested positive for COVID-19, or been in contact with anyone suspected or confirmed to have COVID-19?
3. Are you currently under evaluation for COVID-19?

If you answered “no” to these questions, you may sign up for shifts by clicking on the Individual Registration button.
