Volunteers are the heart and soul of the Café of Life. Without them we could not survive. Who are they? People just like you – concerned that in a “society of plenty” there are those who face each day without the potential fulfillment of the most basic of human needs. In essence, these volunteers “care, share and serve” their fellow man!

We have more than 700 volunteers who contribute over 6.000 hours in shopping for groceries each year, preparing and serving meals, serving on the Board of Directors, arranging special events such as Thanksgiving and Christmas luncheons, and “lending a helping hand” to anything and everything in meeting the nutritional and supplemental needs of our clients.

You can become a volunteer at Café of Life by contacting us at volunteer@cafeoflife.org or calling (239) 593-9325. Our coordinators welcome your inquiry and can provide a comprehensive overview of the specific activities of our many volunteers – AND – how you can join this dedicated group of enthusiastic individuals.

“The one common denominator is each volunteer’s compassion for all residents of Bonita Springs – whether it is a neighbor in need, a disabled veteran, a mother living in her car with a small child, a father out of work, or a young adult struggling with a social problem.”
