Volunteering

Centennial Community Food Shelf and Powerpack would not operate without our approximately 150 volunteers who do all the things we need to run the Food Shelf and Powerpack program. Our food shelf distribution times are staffed with teams from one of our participating community churches. These teams serve approximately one afternoon a month and often need additional members or substitutes.
