The heart of our ministry
The heart of our ministry
Each week, The Well Outreach serves hundreds of families at our two food pantries. We do this 52 weeks a year with a staff of only 20 people. Know how we do it?
Volunteers!
The over 400 volunteers that help us each week at our two food pantries are off all ages, backgrounds and locations. They come with church groups, civic groups, neighborhood groups, schools, businesses and charitable organizations. And they engage in impactful, fun activities of all types while they are helping us. There is something for everyone to do, regardless of age or physical capacity.

Frequently asked questions
Are there orientation sessions?
Yes there are!
While our volunteer orientations are not mandatory, we strongly recommend first time volunteers attend one of our bi-weekly orientations so you can more fully understand the story of hunger in our community. This 40-minute orientation will educate you on local hunger issues, clarify our programs and opportunities, and guide you into a volunteer role.
Can we volunteer as a team?
Scheduling a team of volunteers is something we are thrilled to offer our churches, businesses and community groups!
First time team volunteering
If this is your team’s first time volunteering, we can help find the right opportunity via the form link below. After filling this form out, you will hear from our Director of Volunteers within two business days to coordinate scheduling.
