Volunteer at Northern Illinois Food Bank
Details
Let’s get together and help to provide nutritious food and essential resources to our neighbors with dignity, equity, and convenience. We’ll be sorting and packing food in a warehouse environment, preparing it to be delivered to the communities and partners who serve neighbors in need.

It is recommended to dress comfortably and in layers depending on the season of year. Volunteers working at our Centers and outdoor distributions must wear fully enclosed shoes. Individuals wearing opened-toe shoes such as sandals, flip flops, soccer slides, Crocs, Keens, slippers, as well as, high heeled shoes are not allowed while volunteering. Medical boots are also a safety concern and not allowed. Long shorts or pants and t-shirts or sweatshirts are recommended.
The tasks require some level of physical activity– from standing on concrete floors for several hours at a time to occasionally lifting at least 10 pounds.
