Volunteer with Bienvenidos Outreach
Volunteers are the life-blood of our organization. We simply could not do what we do without the help of our dedicated volunteers. Individuals and groups are always welcomed at Bienvenidos Outreach! Volunteers can choose from a number of activities and hours are flexible to fit your schedule, however, a minimum of a two-hour commitment is appreciated.

- Friday – Saturday: Donated Food Pick Up and Restocking of Coolers and Shelves – approximately 2-3 hours. This position is shared among volunteers on a revolving schedule. Currently, once every 5 or 6 weeks per person/group. All pickups are within 5-10 minutes of Bienvenidos Outreach.
Saturday – Sundays: 7:00am (2-4 hours to complete)
This is a revolving group of people with either trucks or SUVs who can pick up food at places located within a short drive from Bienvenidos Outreach. New volunteers are accompanied by seasoned volunteers the first one or two times, so they get the hang of it. This is an early morning activity starting at 7:00am. Depending on load, anywhere from 2-4 hours to complete. This is a great social group activity and we encourage people to share this information with their social groups/organizations.
