Individual & Groups: Volunteer Sign-Up

Join the hundreds of volunteers that help feed Milwaukee’s hungry. Volunteers are the backbone of the Gathering. We are serving hot to go meals and bag lunches daily. We hope you’ll join us in the fight against hunger in our community.

Individual Volunteer Sign-Up

We are seeking no more than eight volunteers to volunteer during a meal.

Volunteers should be friendly, helpful and willing to assist where needed. (For volunteers 17 years of age and under, please review our Children and Youth Volunteer Policy.) Volunteer opportunities and descriptions follow.  

We look forward to hearing from you! If you’re ready to volunteer, you can sign-up by clicking the buttons below.


“I truly believe that each job a volunteer is given, impacts the way the morning comes together and how each one of us serves! We work together to better the world and change others minds about how they may see it....Remember that the smallest act of kindness can add to a big change in happiness.”
— Samantha, UW-Milwaukee, Breakfast Volunteer

Gathering volunteers provide over 30,000 hours of direct service annually.  That’s just under 3 1/2 years worth of hours.

“Getting to know the guests is so rewarding and is one of the reasons I continue to volunteer.”
— Christine, Coordinator

“Knowing the guests enjoyed their meal in a safe and clean environment is important to us.”
— Julie and John, Cooks
