The mission of Community Cooperative is to eliminate hunger and homelessness in southwest Florida while simultaneously inspiring and supporting sustained positive change in its clients by delivering innovative food, education and social service programs.

Student volunteers are needed to help families shop for the food they need with dignity and care. Whether you're organizing groceries or assisting clients with their selections, your support brings nourishment and hope to our community.
