VOLUNTEERS

An Essential Part of Roadrunner Food Bank

Volunteers make it possible for Roadrunner Food Bank to receive and transport more than 14 million pounds of food each year.  Roadrunner distributes this food through a statewide network of six smaller, regional food banks and more than 700 emergency food pantries, group homes, low-income day care centers, shelters, and soup kitchens throughout the state.  In turn, these organizations provide emergency food boxes, meals, and direct food donations to 238,000 people per year.
