How Can You Help?

Be a Neighborhood Coordinator

Becoming a Neighborhood Coordinator for the Thurston County Food Project is a simple yet impactful way to strengthen your community while helping those in need. As a Coordinator, you’ll organize a small group of neighbors to donate food, fostering a network of support and connection. From choosing your neighborhood to building your team, the process is flexible and designed to fit your comfort level. Plus, it’s a great opportunity to get to know your neighbors and make a difference together!

Be a Food Donor

Donating food to the Thurston County Food Project is simple and convenient! With an easy-to-follow system, you’ll be connected to a Neighborhood Coordinator who will provide you with a reusable green bag and details about upcoming pickups. Just fill your bag with food donations, and every two months, your Coordinator will pick it up and leave a new bag for next time.

Join the Support Team

There are so many ways to get involved with the Thurston County Food Project beyond donating food! From packing and sorting donations to canvassing neighborhoods or helping with special events, there’s a role for everyone to make a difference. Whether you’re interested in a one-time opportunity or an ongoing commitment, your time and skills can help feed our community and keep the Food Project growing strong.
