Soup Kitchen volunteers come from across central NJ to give of their time and energy to make a difference.

Volunteer shifts are Monday-Friday 8:30am-12:30pm; Monday-Friday 5:00pm-7:30pm; Saturday & Sunday 3pm-5pm.

Each meal requires 10-12 volunteers to help cook, set up, serve and clean-up. Both groups and individuals can sign up to help. If you plan to come and help we ask that you be attentive to the following guidelines:

~Please be on time. If you are unable to be here for your scheduled volunteer time, please call the staff and let them know.

~Wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Bring a hat, all volunteers must wear hats and gloves when handling food (we supply gloves and hairnets).

~When you arrive, check in with the staff person to secure your belongings and get your assignment.

~Please observe safe food handling guidelines when working in the kitchen. For more information on safe food handling, please download and review the following Volunteer Safe Food Handling Training presentation (pdf file)

~Please do not bring valuables with you. Lock up coats and belongings in lockers located in the dining room.

~Please do not give guests money, or give out your home address or telephone.
