Feed Streets - Kitchen Support; age + Referral

Feed the Streets - Kitchen Support (age 14+) Referral

Since forming in June of 2020, we have prepared and distributed over 900,000 meals to people in need and salvaged more than 320,000 pounds of food waste. We operate every day of the week out of two commercial kitchens, making nearly 1,000 meals daily for shelters, camps, and various community partners throughout the Portland metro area.

We are asking for volunteer support in our day-to-day operations preparing meals for the community. Volunteer duties include meal boxing, kitchen cleaning, and general kitchen support.

Kitchen Support takes place at our Northeast Kitchen. You'll receive the address in your confirmation text or email.

One sign up is equivalent to one person. Each individual is required to sign up separately.

Volunteer shifts are confirmed and approved Monday - Friday. If you sign up for a same-day shift on Saturday or Sunday, it may not be approved. Signing up as much in advance as possible is highly recommended.

Proof of vaccination and signed waiver required prior to your arrival at the kitchen. Thank you for volunteering with Our Streets!

Opportunity Requirements:

Volunteers must be 14 years of age or older to participate in this opportunity; any volunteer under age 18 must attend with a parent or adult chaperone

To sign up to volunteer, please select "Express Interest" for your chosen volunteer shift below. Your shift details will be sent to you upon approval and confirmation from our volunteer coordinator.
