Atheists Volunteer - Greater Los Angeles

Atheists United, California's largest grassroots atheist nonprofit, is fighting the emergency food crisis with our partners Sunday Assembly Los Angeles by hosting a food distribution in Los Angeles outside our offices. We've partnered with the LA Food Bank and give out over 3,000lbs of food each event.

We need volunteers to help us assemble and organize food packages from 12pm - 5pm every third Friday.

From 3:30pm - 5pm volunteers will help hand food out directly to those in need in the neighborhood. From 5pm - 6pm we'll clean up and celebrate everything we accomplished together. Music and snacks will make it well worth your time.

If you'd like to be a super volunteer, contact us about showing up at 10am to help with setup!

If you're able to make a donation to our Food Distribution program please text the code "AUFOOD" to 44-321, or click here. All donations go to helping us feed our community or expand our impact.

**Food: Snacks will be provided free for volunteers. We also hope you join us for dinner at a local restaurant after the event.

**Safety: COVID-19 is extremely dangerous and we prioritize the safety of our volunteers and food recipients. You must be vaccinated to volunteer. If you are not vaccinated you will be asked to leave immediately.

**Parking: Free parking for volunteers in our parking lot off Rampart Blvd behind the building.

**Dress Code: Safety requirements include: no open-toe/open-heel shoes or high heels. We recommend casual attire (jeans, t-shirt, light sweater, & tennis shoes). Please dress for the weather and wear sunscreen as needed.

What would it mean to truly reimagine America?

Timed to coincide with Juneteenth and the 250th anniversary of July 4th, Reimagining America invites participants to reflect on the nation’s founding promises as well as the ongoing work of true liberty for all.

This gathering brings together leaders, activists, scholars, and community members of all ages for thoughtful conversations about the future of our shared civic life. Through panels on education, local government, reflective activism, and religious pluralism, participants will explore how we can strengthen institutions, deepen participation, and build a more just and inclusive society.

Grounded in honest reflection and creative possibility, the conference is a space to ask bold questions and imagine new paths forward.
