Volunteer
Volunteer mobilization is at the heart of Elevate’s mission, ethos and program implementation. ALL we do is dependent upon thousands of volunteers who share their time, talent and treasure to lift vulnerable communities.
There are numerous ways you can volunteer with us.
Sponsor a Meal Pack
Our meal packing events provide outstanding community service and team building opportunities for employees, youth organizations, civic groups and faith communities. We can accommodate groups from as few as 10 people to as many as 4,000 volunteers serving in a two-hour shift. Cost is .25/meal or .30/meal depending upon which meal you choose to pack.
Visit Elevate’s Hoosiers Against Hunger page for more information about sponsoring a pack.
Join Elevate’s Bucket Brigade
When natural disasters strike, immediate relief in very practical ways is needed. Elevate’s Bucket Brigade provides tangible, ready assistance to our neighbors in Indiana and across the Midwest whose lives have been turned upside down by unexpected calamity.
Bucket Brigade members sign up to fill 5 gallon lidded buckets with either food or cleaning supplies from a prepared check list of most needed items. The buckets are pre-filled, stored and ready for immediate dispatch to devastated communities across the Midwest. Bucket Brigade members also are invited to help distribute these relief supplies to devastated communities.
Visit Elevate’s Disaster Services page to learn more about how you can join our disaster relief squad.
Serve as a Rock Star Team Member
Elevate’s Rock Star Team members are the heart and soul of our organization. They are trained volunteers who help run our meal packing events. This is a fun-filled, highly-rewarding community service opportunity – and a great way to connect with others in the fight against hunger. Training is provided. Time commitment is 2-4 hours per event. Rock Star Team members are asked to serve at least once per quarter.
Ages 12 and older are invited to join Elevate’s Rock Star Team. This is a highly engaging leadership development opportunity for teens and young professionals and a great community engagement opportunity for senior citizens. Elevate seeks to enlist 200 active Rock Star Team members annually.
