Volunteer at the St. Francis Center serving breakfast Monday-Friday!

St. Francis Center’s mission is to feed, serve, and walk with the poor as a community of hope in the spirit of Saint Francis of Assisi. During the pandemic, they modified their programs in a to-go distribution format. But with the changing times, the center is able to serve an indoor dining service once again. Volunteers can help serve breakfast in any of the following ways:

  • Table Captains/Floaters – One volunteer is stationed at one or two tables. The volunteer in this role will act as the server for the table and assist guests with anything they need. This role is the most sought out by all volunteers as it provides a good opportunity for conversation with our guests.

  • Coffee Captains– Volunteers help prepare cups of coffee and provide refills when needed.

  • Kitchen Captains– This volunteer will help in the kitchen. They can expect to help with food prep and preparing the breakfast plates or soup.

Help out at the St. Francis Center’s Back-to-School Fair!

The St. Francis Center's Back-to-School Fair will take place on Saturday, August 5th, from 12 - 2:30 pm. Last year with your support, they distributed school supplies to 300 youth from their extremely low-income pantry program families! These families also enjoyed a street fair with carnival-style games, activities, food, and entertainment. Volunteers must be over age 7 and accompanied by an adult. Volunteers assist with distributing school supplies, manning carnival game booths, registering guests, and handing out swag or goodies to the community. Please wear closed-toed shoes. The event will be outside so make sure to bring sun gear and water bottle.

 

The St. Francis center is also looking for and accepting donations for this opportunity! Your sponsorship allows St. Francis Center to purchase school supplies, backpacks, shoes, and other essentials to set youth up for a productive and successful school year. On average, families enrolled in their pantry program make $17,000 a year, so this event helps alleviate the financial burden of the new school year.


They are also accepting in-kind donations of backpack, school supplies, and other essentials. Please email them at donations@sfcla.org to schedule a drop-off.
