Your time is a valuable donation
We rely on our volunteers, and have opportunities available at for groups and individuals year-round. You can help by sorting and packing food at our Kent Distribution Center, serving clients at Cherry Street Food Bank or assisting staff at special events. Whether it’s once a week, once a month or once in a while, your time makes a great contribution.

To volunteer, first complete a Northwest Harvest  volunteer application for a group or an individual. For more information, contact Volunteer Manager Jeri Chonle at (206) 923-7456 or jeric@northwestharvest.org.

Volunteers make it all possible
Volunteers are absolutely vital to our work at Northwest Harvest. It simply couldn't be done without them. Many of our wonderful, dedicated volunteers have served our clients for many years.

Volunteers last year donated a whopping 46,386 hours of their time to ensure the food we secure reaches our clients. That is the equivalent of 22 full-time employees.

Who can volunteer?
Anyone third grade or older may work at the warehouse and the food bank. Some of the work is suitable for children and their families. Any volunteer 15 years old or younger must bring an adult to work alongside them. We do not participate in court-ordered community service.
