Join us for the YMCA Fall Food Drive, happening across all Western North Carolina YMCA locations from November 16–22!
Throughout the week, we’ll be collecting non-perishable food items and canned goods to support our YMCA Nutrition Department, which provides healthy meals and essential groceries to individuals and families in need throughout our community.
There are multiple opportunities to volunteer your time this week to help receive and organize donations.
As a volunteer, you’ll be part of the action — greeting members, accepting donations, sorting food, and helping prepare items for distribution. Your efforts will ensure donations are organized efficiently and reach those who need them most before the holidays.
This is a great opportunity to serve alongside other YMCA members, connect with your community, and see the impact your time and generosity can make firsthand.
Volunteer Roles Include:
-
Greeting and receiving donations from members
-
Sorting and checking food items for quality & expiration
-
Organizing food items into respective containers
-
Sharing information about Togetherhood volunteer opportunities

Togetherhood T-Shirt

All supplies and instructions will be provided. No experience necessary — just come ready to lend a hand and make a difference.
