If You Need Food The South Corvallis Food Bank will remain open during its normal hours: Monday 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. Wednesday 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. Thursday 5:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. Saturday 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 noon We are changing our procedures for the duration of this public health crisis. You will be asked to wait outside the food bank. We regret we will not be offering shopping selection for shelf-stable items. You will receive a prepacked box of these items. We will accommodate special dietary needs as much as we can. You will be able to indicate your preferences for refrigerated and frozen items as well as your bread and produce. A volunteer will bring your food outside to you. When possible, we ask that you leave most household members at home and only one person come to the food bank to pick up your food. We will continue to offer a selection of bread, produce, and a few shelf-stable extras for weekly shoppers. You will indicate their choices to a volunteer who will bring the items outside to you. The South Corvallis Food Bank is an equal opportunity provider. Non-Profit 501 (c)3 | Volunteers needed Many of our loyal volunteers are over 60, making them members of a vulnerable population and unable to serve during this public health crisis.

Volunteers are also needed to pack boxes and take groceries outside to clients: Monday 12:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. Wednesday 12:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. Thursday 4:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. Saturday 9:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. Youth ages 12 and up are welcome with their guardian's permission.
