Revive & Thrive Project welcomes groups from local businesses, faith congregations, and community organizations to help fulfill our mission. Current group volunteer opportunities include:

Customized Volunteer Events

Monthly on Thursday or Friday - Flexible timing

Groups of four or more people welcome! Revive & Thrive Project would love to host your team or group for a volunteer event. Typical activities include:

- Deep cleaning our kitchen including scrubbing our stove and oven, washing the walls, mopping the floors, and making our countertops look like new!

- Creating a healthy snack or dessert for our clients

- Organizing our packaging area for weekly meal deliveries

Group volunteer events must be scheduled in advance, and our monthly schedule tends to fill up quickly. Please contact Carlita Gonzalez, Program Coordinator, at 616-606-3314 or carlita@reviveandthriveproject.org to schedule an opportunity for your group.


Group Packaging Volunteers

Wednesdays 3:00-6:15pm

Groups of three to six people welcome!

Join our packaging team to label, seal, and organize our fresh, delicious meals for home delivery all over greater Grand Rapids. Along the way, create encouragement cards for our clients and meet other wonderful volunteers who make our meal service possible every week.

We require that at least two volunteers from your group stay through the end of the volunteer shift to assist with clean-up.


Celebrate the Harvest Event Volunteers

Shifts Available Between 12pm-9pm

Support Revive & Thrive Project’s biggest fundraiser of the year! Volunteer groups are needed to assist with setting up the venue, serving tables during the dinner, assisting with our auction, and cleaning up after the event.

Enjoy our farm-to-table dinner and help Revive & Thrive share our mission with the community while raising support for our year-round programs.
