Independence From Hunger

Join the Westside Food Brigade team in our annual fundraiser! This campaign funds food distribution and upkeep at WFB allowing us to supply hundreds of families with meals every week along with special meal boxes through the holidays every year!
You can help by volunteering to serve two hours at one of the Grocery Outlet partnership locations. It’ll include welcoming & interacting with shoppers, answering questions, and encouraging the purchase of bags of food & donations.
This year we are working with two Grocery Outlet stores to raise funds in support of Westside Food Brigade.
Grocery Outlet Tanasbourne at SW 185th and Walker
Grocery Outlet Beaverton on Hall Blvd
Both stores are looking for a lot of community involvement this year to drive the donations to new highs. You can help by volunteering for a 2-hour shift at either store. Great News! The “Give $5 Get $5” coupon is available again this year. For a $5 donation at the register, or purchase of a bag of food, the customer gets a $5 off coupon for their next visit.
If you are willing to give a few hours of your time, please visit the links below to sign up for as many time slots as you can at each store. If you find a shift with one or more spots taken, please select a different time or different day. Your small investment of time will go a long way toward our mission of “Feeding Those in Need”. Westside Food Brigade will provide door prizes for the people who give the most time for our mission. info@westsidefoodbrigade.com with any questions.
