Sunrise Reach is 100% volunteer-run.
Every box packed, every clothing rack organized, and every family served is possible because of volunteers.
Whether you can spare an hour here and there or are looking for a more consistent way to give back, there’s a place for you at Sunrise Reach.
This page provides an overview of all of our volunteer opportunities. Use the quick link below to access the food pantry volunteer signup.
Volunteer every third Monday at the Pop-Up Food Pantry!
Pantry Crew volunteers help set up and run the food packing assembly line by moving boxes, packing food shares, and keeping the event organized and efficient. They also assist with cleanup tasks like sweeping floors, breaking down boxes, and resetting the space after the pantry ends.
Delivery Drivers help bring food directly to families in the community through no-contact porch deliveries. Volunteers load food boxes into their vehicles, follow a provided delivery route, and should be comfortable lifting around 45 lbs.
