Volunteer Opportunities for Individuals

Volunteers are the backbone of Samaritan Ministries.

People of all faiths who believe in our mission are welcome to serve with us. We have volunteer opportunities available for individuals and small groups – perfect for civic groups, churches, schools, and companies. Samaritan staff is committed to providing meaningful work and appropriate training for our busy commercial kitchen. On average, our volunteers help our Soup Kitchen team prepare and serve meals for 300 guests daily. We have lunchtime, dinnertime, and grocery store pickup opportunities each day!

  • Lunchtime: We need 12 volunteers to help serve lunch every day. Shifts are available Monday – Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and on Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
  • Dinnertime: We need 6-8 volunteers to help serve dinner every day. Shifts are available Monday – Sunday from 5:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. This is a great opportunity for you to invite coworkers, friends, and family to experience volunteering at Samaritan during a night of service.
  • Grocery Store Pickup: We need individual volunteers to help pick up donations from our partnered grocery stores in Winston-Salem, NC. This opportunity is available Monday – Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Volunteers must be 18 and older to sign up.
