The Austin Blessings Co-op is a collaboration of people and organizations on a mission to meet our city’s practical, emotional, and spiritual needs.
Whether it’s one afternoon of serving in a month, or 20 hours every week, we rely on an extraordinary group of volunteers from all over Austin to meet the needs of our neighbors. If you’d like to volunteer, sign up in our Volunteer Portal.
Our Harvest Blessings Food Pantries rely on volunteer roles five days a week, including but not limited to: non-perishables sorting/packing, facility prep and food assembly, food distribution, check-in and traffic control, tech support, and connecting with our beloved patrons.
Our Woven Blessings Boutique offers high quality, previously used clothing at extremely affordable prices, with all proceeds going to fund our other ministries. Volunteer roles are available on Thursday afternoons, and one Saturday a month for our Woven Blessings Giveaway events.
Baby Blessings is all about meeting the needs of babies and their mothers through practical means. We are proud to partner with Austin Diaper Bank to distribute nearly 10,000 diapers a month. We also give away feminine products, baby wipes, and an assortment of baby products when available. Volunteer roles are available on Wednesdays.
Be a part of building connections with people across Austin and having an impact on their spiritual and emotional journeys. Provide support for addiction recovery or one-on-one mentoring or help with prayer ministry, bible studies, or making personal phone calls.
These ministries represent only a part of what’s available for you to get involved in. There are many volunteer opportunities through the Austin Blessings Co-op. You can learn more and/or sign up through our Volunteer Portal.
Over the past year we’ve experienced 6,090 volunteers serving in our Harvest Blessings Food Ministry in East, South, and West Austin. And through their dedicated and inspiring efforts, we’ve fed over 71,460 families, or nearly 248,516 individual people, who did not go to bed hungry.
When you volunteer with Austin Blessings Co-op, you become part of an amazing community. A community that selflessly seeks to meet the needs of our vulnerable neighbors however we can. Whether your contribution to the community is through your time, talent, or treasure, you’re on the front lines of where compassion meets action in Austin.
We call the community of dedicated Co-op volunteers our Community of Kindness. We can’t wait to see how you can make our community even stronger. To learn more about what our volunteers are up to, subscribe to the Community of Kindness Newsletter.
