Volunteer Impact
Your time is a vital resource to the Mendo Food Network!
In 2025, 245 volunteers donated approximately 23,000 hours to the Fort Bragg Food Bank and Mendo Food Network.
Our volunteers are essential to our programs, including Fort Bragg Food Bank Choice Pantry, Curb-Side Distribution, and Kids Bags, Grab n' Go, and Senior Box Distributions. Volunteers also pack bags at our Willits warehouse and run pop-ups in Albion, Leggett, Laytonville, Covelo, and Willits. They also help at events like community tabling opportunities, the Blues Festival, and other fundraising events.
In 2025, the MFN served nearly 18,000 individuals, 20% of the population of Mendocino County, over 2.6 million pounds of food.
With a staff of only 12, it would be impossible for the MFN to serve the county at the scale we do without our volunteers. Volunteer your time to make a huge impact on your neighbors and community!
