Volunteers

Since we have no paid staff, our volunteers are the lifeblood of Mobile Loaves Twin Cities!

We have so many varied and wonderful opportunities for volunteering that finding a way to get involved is easy!

These teams gather together in the basement kitchen of Knox Presbyterian Church to make turkey, roast beef and peanut butter & jelly sandwiches and wrap them up for our truck runs.

Those sandwiches are then passed to another group of volunteers, who put the sandwiches in bags, along with fruit, chips and a cookie or other dessert.

Mobile Loaves Twin Cities often receives items for our ministry in bulk form. The repacking teams divide the bulk items up into smaller bags for the Make Ready Teams to use in preparing meal bags.

Head-to-Toe refers to toiletries, clothing, diapers, feminine products and other necessities that are needed by the communities that we serve. The Head-to-Toe team helps organize these items so that our truck teams can easily load them on the truck.

Truck and Car team members load up the food bags and Head-to-Toe items onto the Mobile Loaves truck or their personal vehicle and take them to our partner sites.

Truck teams involve a group of volunteers who drive to the site and stand at the truck to hand out the food and head-to-toe items.

Car teams involve one or two volunteers who pick up a box of food bags, prepared by our make-ready team, and drive it to drop off at a partner site.

Thanks to our incredible volunteers, Mobile Loaves Twin Cities provides roughly 4,000-5,000 meals a month. Volunteers also value making meaningful connections with the brothers and sisters that we serve.
