I have been volunteering and donating here for decades. It's a fantastic organization to get involved with to help your fellow Central Texans in need. My father recently passed away and this was the place we loved volunteering together the most. In his name I started a Virtual Food Drive and donated almost 1,000 lbs worth of non perishable food, and I will continue the tradition in his honor, especially during the holidays!

Families being hungry in this country, in this day in age with all the massive corporate wealth, is truly heartbreaking to me. I give what I can on a regular basis, not to make myself feel good, but to let these people, these angels, do the ultimate good that they can only do. The only thing that gives me peace is knowing a family or families will have food and nourishment.

Volunteered in the warehouse as food sorting for approximately 3 hrs. They offer AM and PM volunteer shifts. Companies can volunteer as a group. Parents can volunteer with their children. Wonderful experience that helps out the community!

I volunteer at this facility whenever I can make the time. I have been blown away by the impact a few hours of your time can make with respect to the incredible organization of Central Texas Food Bank. I have met so many lovely people that work and volunteer there and I highly recommend making the time to volunteer here. You will be helping SO many others and they make it fun while you’re there!

One word AMAZING. The work this organization does, many families would go to sleep hungry if they weren't here to help.

IT'S FOR A GOOD CAUSE! Need I say more? Oh, the commercial is hilarious, poor dude gets a parking ticket, but decides to give to the food bank instead. Only in Austin. Way to stick it to the man guy.

I volunteer every Friday at the Grace Baptist Food Pantry in Red Rock. And I stand amazed at how smoothly the pantry runs and the seamless delivery service accomplished by Central Texas Food Bank. The drivers are both respectful and knowledgeable about every facet or the system utilized.Thank you all so much and God Bless us all.

What a great place to volunteer. They have lots of activities for small to large groups and they provide food to a huge service area. There are jobs for everyone from kids to adults. For bigger, corporate groups you can call the volunteer coordinator and get a specific website set up for your activity. Easy peasy for your volunteers. They have a big drop in volunteers right after the new year, so that's a really important time to go!

Great place to volunteer. Take your kids, too, they can get a little work experience and help people. Not a dispensing food bank though. They send food to the different pantries that then give it out.

Really nice place, but one of their drivers parked in the dock I was assigned and then told me, “Too bad, cuz I ain’t moving”.
DRIVERS TAKE NOTE: the street address is not the delivery address. The street address is Metropolis, but the entrance for shipping/receiving is on Burleson...it’s about 1,000 feet before Metropolis on the left. It’s a concrete driveway with a 4 wheeler parking lot off to the side. Go straight through the gate and check in by door 11.

Take a group of friends, family, and/or coworkers (call or e-mail first to schedule a time) and help central Texans in need. This is a great place to volunteer: a beautiful facility, knowledgeable and friendly staff and coordinators, and lots of tasks appropriate for a range of ages and abilities. And don’t forget to check out their beautiful garden! ????

If you have time to donate this is a great place to start! Give them a call and ask her about their many programs! From school lunches to meals-on-wheels this organization helps many people in Travis County and surrounding counties to with their food bank program. Thank you for all that you do! Love my bowls from the empty bowl project!!

Went here for food assistance during the recent government shutdown. Although the process was efficient and quick, the majority of the food I received was out dated. I received 3 jars of peanut butter with Best By dates in 2011, canned goods dated from 2014 to 2016, boxed goods that were not only outdated but were opened and taped closed, etc. The canned goods may be fine, but I seriously doubt the peanut butter is. And the boxed food. Why are they giving food out that's so old? I may just take it back, maybe another family can benefit more.

Really nice location.. I love all of the gardens they have. I wish there was an area you can drop food off on the weekend. I work Monday - Friday 9-5 while raising on 14 month old. So I don't have time during business hours to come by.
