We are cancelling our volunteer shifts at the Meridian warehouse on Saturday, May 14th, but would love for you to register to help with The Letter Carriers’ Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive. We need your help at post offices around the Treasure Valley to unload the food that the letter carriers bring back to the post office and pack the food on the trucks to be shipped back to The Idaho Foodbank and our partner agencies.

Pocatello Volunteer Highlight
After we have all been navigating so many changes over the last two years due to the pandemic, it is a joy to recognize the consistency of one of our volunteer groups in Pocatello. It is with sincere gratitude that we highlight the Lookout Credit Union Call Center team for their continued support!
Volunteer Appreciation Month
April is Volunteer Appreciation Month! Volunteers are the engines that keep food moving to Idahoans who are struggling to make ends meet. In the last fiscal year, The Idaho Foodbank hosted 17,474 volunteers. The hours these volunteers gave are the equivalent of 25 full-time employees!
Service is Served in Lewiston
Thank you to everyone who came in to volunteer their time on Martin Luther King Day! Volunteers from the LCSC Volleyball Team, Kiwanis Club of LC Valley and Lewiston Rotary Club, in addition to other individuals in the community, helped The Idaho Foodbank pack food for our Backpack Program. We appreciate everyone who celebrated this National Day of Service by supporting The Idaho Foodbank and our partners.
Pocatello – Family Day
The Idaho Foodbank facility in Pocatello recently hosted their first Family Day of Volunteering. This was an opportunity for families with children as young as four years old to volunteer at the warehouse.
