Without volunteers, FOOD Share could not function!

Volunteers are essential in helping the food bank reach more than 33,000 food insecure people each month in Ventura County. Our dedicated volunteers fight hunger with compassion and commitment to help ensure that people in need have ready access to nutritious food.
