What Motivates a Harvest Volunteer?
As a volunteer, you are a donor, giving your time and good will to support your community. It feels good to contribute to helping others. There’s a karma to showing your gratitude for what you’ve been given in life by giving, yourself.
Maybe Harvest has helped you through a tough time. Maybe you’ve been hungry and have been fed. Reaching out to give kindness to someone else celebrates how far you’ve come.
When you walk through our doors, that’s the community you’ll be volunteering with. We call them Harvest Stars, and they do shine.
It takes a special community to feed our community. We could not do this without you.
There is something for everyone to do, and the need for volunteers is always critical.
