Food Distribution Volunteer Opportunities

Family Promise currently has a rewarding volunteer opportunity at our Walk-In Dinner Program in Hackensack. (Located at the Housing Health and Human Services Center, 120 South River Street).  

Volunteers pack up and distribute meals in the dining room to shelter residents and at the loading dock to food insecure community members. We are currently feeding approximately 160 guests every evening and need to schedule eight volunteers every day.​
