City Harvest rescues perfectly good, nutritious food that would otherwise go to waste and delivers it for free to New Yorkers experiencing hunger.
Over the past 40 years, we have rescued and distributed over one billion pounds of food for our neighbors across the five boroughs who are struggling to put meals on the table.
Volunteer
Our volunteers are critical to our work year-round.
Your passion and time are important resources as we work to rescue and deliver food for New Yorkers in need. City Harvest offers a variety of volunteer opportunities in New York City, including participating in food rescue and distribution, providing nutrition education to people of all ages, and more.
