Volunteer With Us
We have several volunteer opportunities available for members of our community. Okotoks Food Bank Association is only able to provide the programs and services to our community because of our dedicated team of volunteers. Some of the opportunities available include:
- Warehouse Sorting / Stocking
- Special Events
- Community Garden
- On Call Worker (fill in where needed)
- Donation Pick Up
- Fundraising
- Soup Sessions
Due to the nature of some of our volunteer positions, The Okotoks Food Bank Association may require a Vulnerable Sector Check, proof of valid Driver’s License, Auto Insurance, and a Driver’s Abstract.
Qualifications to Volunteer
Age Sixteen (16) or older. We have opportunities for students requiring Community Service Hours for High School Graduation.
People under the age of 16 are not permitted to volunteer due to safety concerns in our warehouse and liability reasons. We can provide some suggestions for ways for children to volunteer through collections of donations at Birthday Parties, Neighbourhood Food Drives, and off-site Special Events. Please contact our Volunteer Coordinator to discuss these ideas. We will happily give children a tour of our warehouse at drop-off so they can see how their donations are helping neighbours in our community (must be previously arranged).
Thank you for your interest in our organization. We hope to provide you with a meaningful volunteer experience. Please fill in our on-line application form by clicking the button below:
