Being a Volunteer

A Loving Spoonful is a volunteer-driven organization. We are able to provide 100,000 free, nutritious meals each year to men, women and children affected by AIDS who have a medical need for nutritional support. This is made possible by the loving efforts of over 150 active volunteers.

Volunteers work in many areas of A Loving Spoonful to add to the quality and delivery of our programs and services. They are also wonderful ambassadors in the community, helping to generate awareness of our goals, services and needs.

While you make a difference to people living with AIDS, there are many ways by which volunteering for A Loving Spoonful may benefit you, including:

Personal satisfaction.
Insight into the non-profit sector and the care, treatment and support of people living with AIDS.
Learning and/or improving on-the-job and transferable skills.
Improved self-confidence through meeting and working with a variety of people in different situations.

A Loving Spoonful receives 77% of its funding from private donations and grants, rather than government funding.
