Volunteer
Every day the people of the Northfield area come together to support our neighbors in need. The Community Action Center is able to help more than 3,500 of our neighbors each year with the support of those who volunteer and donate.
While we are fortunate to receive the support of many people, the needs of our community are greater than ever. The current economic crisis has created hardships, forcing many families having to make difficult choices about how to spend their money. We firmly believe, however, that a family should never have to go without life’s basic necessities — food, clothing and shelter.
Volunteer with Our Programs
Whether volunteering in our Food Shelf, preparing a meal for Thursday’s Table, helping a family shop for gifts during Christmas Sharing or organizing clothes at the Clothes Closet, we are grateful for the gift of your time. While we’re committed to matching your passions with a program, we invite you to consider an area of greatest need.
Volunteer Drivers
We’re looking for volunteers to pick up bread from local stores and deliver it the Community Action Center on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. For more information contact Judy Bickel at 507.664.3550.
Camper Supplies
The kids we send to camp need supplies such as sleeping bags, sunscreen, and beach towels. If your group would like to help equip kids for camp, please contact Kathy at 507.664-3550.
