Kitchen and Food Pantry Volunteers Needed in San Mateo

As one of San Mateo’s leading nonprofits, we are the largest food distribution agency in the county and are recognized as a role model in the community. Our free service offerings include shelter and housing assistance; medical and dental clinics; clothes for children; personalized case management and much more. Each year, we provide services and resources to more than 14,000 low-income and homeless San Mateo County residents in need, including families with children, seniors and individuals living with a disability, veterans and homeless adults.

Our friendly and helpful staff is welcoming, empathetic, insightful and encouraging to every Samaritan House visitor. The staff’s professional and socially engaging approach quickly builds trust and breaks down the stigma associated with being in need. It offers our visitors an opportunity to feel comfortable and supported. Visitors also discover that Samaritan House takes a holistic approach to poverty that goes beyond food, shelter and clothing.

Help give back to those in need! We are seeking ongoing, weekly support with our food pantry and kitchen. Times vary M-F. Limited weekend slots available.
