This unique opportunity combines flexible volunteer service with community connection and lifelong learning. As a Food Recovery Fellow, you’ll join a supportive cohort of peers helping recover and deliver surplus meals to nonprofit partners serving individuals and families experiencing food insecurity.
In addition to hands-on volunteering, Fellows will participate in engaging in-person and virtual learning sessions focused on food recovery, sustainability, hunger relief, and community impact.

Duration: June through December
Training: Provided before service begins
Volunteer Responsibilities:
- Complete weekly meal pickup and delivery routes in Mercer County (~60 minutes/week)
- Participate in monthly learning and discussion sessions (August–October)

- Smartphone for route coordination
Whether you’re newly retired or simply looking for a rewarding way to stay engaged, the Food Recovery Fellowship offers the chance to build connections, support neighbors in need, and be part of a meaningful community effort.
We encourage you to apply and join us.
