Rotary Project with Second Harvest of Silicon Valley

Cupertino Rotary is partnering with Second Harvest for their Cupertino farmers market-style free grocery distribution. This hands-on Community Service opportunity allows you to make a direct, local impact by helping distribute fresh, nutritious groceries to neighbors facing food insecurity.

📍 What: Second Harvest Farmers Market-Style Grocery Distribution
👥 Who: 8-10 volunteers needed per shift
📌 Where: Cupertino Union Church, 20900 Stevens Creek Blvd
🕖 When: 1st and 3rd Thursdays of each month, 7:45 – 9:30 AM (on 3rd Thursday, if you can arrive at 7:30 AM, we need a few people to help bag frozen chicken)

Volunteers help set up and assist clients as they select their groceries in a Farmers market-style layout (and tear down afterward). Friends/family (age 16+) are welcome!

Why This Matters:
Second Harvest of Silicon Valley is one of the largest food banks in the country, serving hundreds of thousands each month. Cupertino Rotary already indirectly partners with Second Harvest through our projects with Hunger at Home, West Valley Community Services, and De Anza College. This is our chance to partner directly—and right here in Cupertino.

Sign-ups are needed at least EIGHT days in advance. Here are the sign-up links for all the sessions July-Dec 2026:
