Volunteering
Volunteering
is a great way to help your community fight hunger.
Essential
to Second Harvest Foodbank’s operations, volunteers
average 5,000 hours of service each month. Their donated time
is equivalent to 31 full-time employees — a considerable
costs savings for Second Harvest Foodbank of Southern Wisconsin.
