Food Access Volunteer Opportunities in greater Richmond
In the coming months, potential changes at the federal level may affect the distribution of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits, which many individuals and families in the greater Richmond region rely on. In preparation for an increase in need, the City of Richmond is working with Feed More to identify additional food distribution options that could support residents across Richmond, Henrico, Chesterfield, and Hanover.
Although these efforts may help address emerging challenges, ensuring that our neighbors have access to essential resources during this uncertain time will require support from the broader community. There are many ways to get involved—whether by volunteering, hosting a food drive, or donating supplies—your contribution helps ensure that nutritious food remains available to those who need it most.
