Soup Kitchen Coordinator

About Us & Our Mission : The mission of Golden Harvest Food Bank is to transform lives by feeding our hungry neighbors today and building a healthy, hunger-free tomorrow. We exist simply because people in our community struggle with meeting a basic human need - having enough to eat. Founded in 1982, Golden Harvest Food Bank works to create a safety net of partner agencies, programs, and direct services to meet the needs of our neighbors who struggle with hunger across our 25-county service area. With a network of over 350 partner agencies and programs, we can get nutritious meals directly into the hands of those in need within their communities.

Our Values :

Faith : Our Christian faith motivates us to live out Jesus' teachings, feeding the hungry in our communities and uniting with people of every creed in a movement of compassion, service, and positive change.

Health : We prioritize the well-being of each person, aiming to offer safe, nourishing food to those we serve, recognizing that healthy lives depend on healthy food, environments, and communities, as part of our efforts to break the cycle of poverty and hunger.

Service : With kindness, openness, and joyful generosity, we address the unique needs of everyone without judgment, fostering a spirit of compassion and sensitivity. We listen to the story and needs of each person so that they know they are seen, heard and valued in a world where they may often feel invisible.

People : Respecting the inherent worth and dignity of every person, we approach all with justice, equity, and understanding, honoring the lives, ideas, and concerns of those we serve, valuing donors' gifts, and cherishing volunteers while ensuring positive and impactful experiences in support of our cause.

Community : Collaborating with individual community members, partner agencies, businesses, and local government, we strive to change our community through openness, cooperation, and transparency, united by our shared mission of feeding the hungry.
