New Volunteer Opportunities

Looking for a volunteer role outside of our normal shifts? Contact Lila at [email protected] or 612-767-7330 if you are interested in the following opportunity:

Fare for All Assistant

Once a month, Open Arms is a site for community members to purchase food through Fare for All, a service that aims to make healthy food more accessible and affordable to all by offering monthly packages of discounted produce and proteins.

We are looking for volunteers on the following Fridays to greet customers, help them bring their food out to their vehicles, and answer questions about Fare for All and Open Arms. Your first shift will include training and run from noon to 3 p.m., and future shifts will be 12:30 p.m. to 3 p.m. once you’ve been trained in.

Brand new to volunteering at Open Arms? Please begin by attending a new volunteer orientation>>
