Volunteer

Volunteers are the lifeblood of FISH’s mission. Volunteers pack groceries, make deliveries, and much more.

  • Delivery Volunteer. You’ll have the chance to see what it means to ‘deliver hope and groceries’. You can change someone’s MONTH in under two hours!
  • Pantry Volunteer. Volunteer in our pantry by packing grocery bags,  stocking shelves, or unloading our delivery truck.

Volunteer Requirements:

You must be at least 16 years of age to volunteer.  We deliver to New Haven, West Haven, East Haven, and Hamden.. To get involved, please complete this sign-up form. One of our coordinating team members will reach out to get you started. Please contact Joe at jparnone@newreach.org with any questions.

Testimonials

  • I just received my first delivery from FISH. I want to thank you and all your team for this bountiful supply of food. I literally don’t know where to put it all, but that’s a good problem. Seeing this variety and quality of food, I can tell a lot of people put a their energy…

    Thank you
  • I want someone else to get the food who needs it more. Thank you for all the help you have given me. I really appreciate it. Doreen of New Haven who became a FISH client in October 2019.

    “I’m doing better…”
  • “…your help just made so much difference when I was trying to heal from the stroke. Because of FISH we had enough food in the house and I wasn’t stressed out trying to figure out how to find someone to bring us enough groceries.” Christina S,

    I don’t need FISH any more…
  • “I wanted to say this is the best food bank I’ve ever been (sic) involved with. The rolls are so fresh, I’m thankful. I wanted to reach out to say that I’m grateful – the vegetables, fresh, the fruit – thank you.” Joseph W.

    “Thank you”
  • I was the victim of an automobile accident while crossing a major boulevard.  I was in critical condition after a series of surgeries and am currently disabled. My Case Worker referred me to FISH. My daughter (who has special needs) and I have been enjoying the support for a little more than a year.  What a great support FISH has been to us.

  • I have serious health issues and my husband is living with heart disease. Our family has been receiving FISH services for more than ten years. My teen age children and the whole rest of the family enjoy the fine selection of food we receive from FISH. Many thanks to FISH for their compassionate work.

  • I have been a FISH client for 15 years.  During that time, I have seen FISH’s quality of services continue to grow and expand.  For example, the quality of groceries, including  the frozen meat and produce are commendable.. Keep up the good work!
