Volunteer With Us
Join Our Movement
Volunteering with the London Food Coalition is more than a way to give back—it’s a chance to be part of a community-led movement grounded in dignity, care, and shared abundance. Every hour you contribute helps ensure that fresh, high-quality food is collected, sorted, and shared across the city—supporting the people and programs that nourish Londoners every day.
​
Whether you're assisting with food sorting, supporting logistics at the Food Hub, or helping with member pickups, your time plays a direct role in strengthening local agencies and amplifying their impact. Volunteers are a vital part of the coalition's daily rhythm, helping move thousands of pounds of food each week to shelters, community centres, school programs, and outreach organizations across London.

As a volunteer, you’ll experience the energy and purpose that comes from working alongside others who care deeply about their community. You’ll meet people from all walks of life who believe, as we do, that food should be shared with dignity—not discarded—and that a healthy, connected city is one where everyone has access to nourishing food.
​
The experience is meaningful on every level. While helping others, you’ll build new skills, connect with a like-minded community, and gain a deeper understanding of what food prosperity looks like in action. It’s a chance to contribute to something bigger than yourself—and to help shape a more sustainable, inclusive future for London.
​
We welcome volunteers of all backgrounds and abilities. Whether you can lend a hand weekly or occasionally, your time is deeply valued. Together, we’re building a city where food is shared, not wasted—and where every contribution helps turn abundance into opportunity.
​
Please note: all volunteers with the London Food Coalition must have an annual Vulnerable Sector Police Check on file. New volunteers without a police check are asked to provide a receipt for payment to show that the process has been initiated (most VSCs are provided within 2 weeks) before they may begin volunteering. Please see https://www.londonpolice.ca/en/services/Vulnerable-Sector-Check.aspx for more information.
