Food Bank:

The Salvation Army of Spokane Food Bank assists approximately 1,500 people per month. We are a client choice program, meaning that each client that comes through our doors gets to “shop” for their own food with dignity.   This requires us to utilize volunteers like you to assist clients and keep the shelves constantly stocked with a variety of food choices.

 

Assistance is needed: shopper, warehouse, stocking shelves, and sorting food, among other things.

Volunteers are needed Monday through Friday, approximately 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Volunteers must wear close toed shoes, and shirts with sleeves (no tank tops).
