At Adelante, volunteering is for everyone.

There is nothing as precious as one’s time, and we consider it a great compliment that you would give us yours.

There are volunteer opportunities for all abilities and backgrounds. We understand that many have limits to what they are able to do and when they are available. We have a spot for you! We can sign off on community service requirements and welcome teens into our volunteer programs. Many of our volunteers also receive food support. All are welcome!

Most of our volunteers participate in food recovery or food distribution programs but there are other opportunities which we would be happy to share with you.

Preparation for the monthly Shadows pantry and the Community Free Marketplace at Conejo take place at our Food Recovery HUB, located adjacent to Bridges Charter School at 1335 Calle Bouganvilla, Thousand Oaks, 91360. The Shadows Pantry is on Los Feliz Dr. on the 2nd Friday evening of each month and the Community Free Marketplace is held one Saturday a month on the campus of Conejo Academy School at 280 N. Conejo School Road.

We use SignUpGenius to coordinate volunteer sign ups. Please click on the SignUpGenius link.

En Adelante el voluntariado es para todos.

No hay nada más valioso que el tiempo de una persona y consideramos un gran cumplido que usted nos brinde el suyo.

Hay oportunidades de voluntariado para todos los niveles e idiomas. Entendemos que muchos tienen límites en cuanto a lo que pueden hacer y cuándo están disponibles. ¡Tenemos un lugar para ti! Podemos aprobar los requisitos de servicio comunitario y dar la bienvenida a los adolescentes a nuestros programas de voluntariado. Muchos de nuestros voluntarios también reciben apoyo alimentario. No dude en registrarse en ambos.

La mayoría de nuestros voluntarios participan en esfuerzos de rescate de alimentos o distribuciones gratuitas de alimentos, pero hay otras oportunidades que estaremos encantados de compartir con usted.

La preparación para la despensa Shadows y el Mercado Comunitario Gratuito se lleva a cabo en nuestro Centro de Recuperación de Alimentos, ubicado en 1335 Calle Bouganvilla, Thousand Oaks, 91360. El Mercado Comunitario Gratuito se celebra un sábado al mes en el campus de la escuela Conejo Academy, en 280 N. Conejo School Road.

Se programan otras oportunidades y proyectos de voluntariado a lo largo del año.
