The Community Food Bank invites community service organizations to help us move forward our goal of providing hunger relief through a three day supply of food in an emergency food box up to nine times a year to any and all Mesa County individuals and family experiencing crisis. The Community Food Bank is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization serving any Mesa County resident. Our services are implemented by volunteers and a volunteer board of directors.
Currently, we need your assistance bulk packing product such as rice, oats, beans and dry milk into portions for distribution for our food boxes. Bulk packing can be completed with as little as one individual or up to 12 comfortably. The best time to volunteer is when the food bank is serving clients - between 10:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. However, weekend and after service hours are welcomed and can be arranged as well.
We anticipate serving more than 4,000 hungry Mesa County residents in November and December, as our weather gets colder.
