Volunteers are a vital resource here at The Depot.
Dear Prospective Volunteers,
We extend our gratitude for your eagerness to volunteer at the Depot.
Regrettably, our volunteer positions are currently at full capacity, and we are unable to accommodate additional volunteers at this time. However, we sincerely value your interest and would love to welcome you to our team in the future. Kindly fill out the form BELOW, and we will add you to our waiting list. Rest assured, we will promptly reach out to you as soon as a position becomes available.
In the interim, we recommend reaching out to the Montreal Bureau of Volunteering, as they may offer promising opportunities.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
Every day, our dedicated volunteers play a key role in helping us to address hunger and food insecurity in our community in a manner that prioritizes dignity, community engagement, and the development of human potential. Most of our programs rely on volunteers, including food basket production, distribution, and delivery; community meal preparation; cooking workshops with seniors and youth; reception and communications tasks; and occasional special events.
The Depot staff are committed to providing all volunteers with role-specific training and ongoing support to fulfill the roles to which they are assigned. Our volunteers tell us they have learned new skills, built friendships, strengthened their ties to the local community, and feel satisfied that they’ve helped to bring about positive change.
Our volunteers give their time for 2-3 hours once per week. Although there are certain events that call for one-time or occasional volunteers, the nature of our programming means that most positions involve a commitment of at least a few months or more. Reliable volunteers who want to make a difference are a welcome addition to our dynamic team!
Thanks for your interest in supporting Good Food for All!
How to Get Involved
Fill out our online application form in order to be added to our volunteering waitlist.
During periods of active volunteer recruitment, once we receive your volunteer application form, you will receive an invitation to a Volunteer Information Session. The first step towards becoming a Depot volunteer, information sessions provide you with the opportunity to learn more about the variety of volunteer roles available at The Depot, our current program needs, and volunteer protocol. This process normally takes at least a few weeks as we only have a certain number of spots available at any given time.
