Thanks to KRON4 for letting us know that the San Francisco-Marin Food Bank is in desperate need of volunteers.

Because of increased need during COVID, the food bank is currently serving about 60,000 households a week. But the food bank says it’s only about to fill about half of their needed 2,000-2,2000 volunteer slots each week.

They currently have 28 pop-up pantries and do home delivery of groceries for over 10,000 seniors every week.

Volunteer shifts are flexible – shifts can be two hours or four hours, or you can do multiple shifts per day. “There is really endless possibilities for whatever works for anyone’s schedule,” according to Katy McKnight of the SF-Marin Food Bank.
