Volunteer Opportunities

Loaves & Fishes Centers could not exist without the help of more than 450 volunteers every weekday. Our volunteers help prepare and serve meals to seniors in 30 different Meals-On-Wheels volunteermeal sites throughout Multnomah, Washington and Clark counties, as well as deliver nearly 3,000 Meals-On-Wheels to homebound elderly on an average day.

New volunteer opportunities!
