About

Northwest Harvest provides food to nearly 350 food banks and hot meal programs across the state. At our Kent warehouse, we need the help of many caring and energetic volunteers to take bulk product and convert it to family-sized units for distribution to people experiencing the crisis of hunger. You will be amazed how much you can accomplish in just one 2 to 3 hour shift!- See more at: http://www.northwestharvest.org/volunteer-faqs#sthash.k7hxbuOj.dpuf

Age Restrictions: Anyone third grade or older may volunteer at our Cherry Street Food Bank, our Kent Warehouse, and all our Special Events.
