Nearly 20% of the food and other products we receive must be sorted and/or repackaged into usable sizes. Each year, more than 5,000 volunteers sort and repack food at the Foodbank. Volunteering at the Foodbank provides an opportunity for families, friends, co-workers and other groups to work and spend time together while helping others.

The
Mid-Ohio FoodBank's mission is to
provide food for hungry people. Volunteers
enable the Foodbank to feed more hungry people than we ever could on our
own. We can use your help.
Reclamation
- By far, the largest need is for reclamation volunteers.
Retail Reclamation is non-perishable food and other products that
were damaged at the grocery store and taken off the shelves.
Volunteers are trained by Foodbank staff to carefully inspect each
item to determine its safety. To work in reclamation, a
volunteer must be at least 13 years old.
