NEW OPPORTUNITIES

• Admin Support Volunteer – Bread for the City seeks two volunteers to serve two days a week for four hours each. Volunteers who are able to serve for an extended period (two or more months) are preferred. Duties include data entry, telephone monitoring, light client outreach at NW and/or SE centers, reminder and update calls, filing and organization, and administrative support. Interested candidates should click here.

Limited volunteer slots are available for licensed health care professionals interested in volunteering in Bread for the City’s Medical Clinic.  Medical volunteers undergo a required credential review and background check.

Bread for the City does not offer internships in our medical division. We have ongoing relationships with area schools for health care students looking for sites to do clinical rotations, but we do not accept applications from individuals.

Thanks for your interest in service!

The Volunteer Program is looking for volunteer ambassadors who’ll commit to learning more about the organization, then represent us at various volunteer fairs and community events. Participants are asked to learn and demonstrate organizational knowledge. To learn more, sign up here.
