Group Service Opportunities

Sweets & Treats

Here is a sure-fire way to cheer up our families! Groups of up to 6 can bake sweets and comfort foods of their choosing, using our kitchen and bakeware. All you need to bring are the ingredients!

If you have questions about the program, please email lbull@rmhcncf.org

Visiting Chef Program

The Visiting Chef program is a wildly popular volunteer program for friends, family members, or co-workers who want to provide a meal for our families! Groups can be up to 10 people, and no professional cooking experience is required. Groups provide all the ingredients and are able to use our kitchen and cookware or cater in from their favorite local restaurant. We encourage our chefs to be creative with their menu and prepare enough for 75 servings!

If you need assistance obtaining ingredients, please contact lbull@rmhcncf.org to learn more about our Visiting Chef Pantry.
