Shelter Kitchen Support
Partner Description
PATH’s goal is to end homelessness for individuals, families, and communities through a combination of services across the state of California. Currently, PATH operates two homeless shelters in Orange County: The Yale Navigation Center (Santa Ana) and the Placentia Navigation Center (Placentia).
Need
Provide nourishment, warmth, and hospitality to local residents on their journey toward permanent housing! Operating a transitional shelter kitchen takes a dedicated team to keep daily meal operations running seamlessly. By stepping into the kitchen to assist with prep work and food service, you directly support our unhoused neighbors, ensuring they receive reliable, nutritious meals in a dignified and welcoming environment.
More Details
This is an excellent, highly active on-site opportunity for adult individuals or small groups who want to serve directly in a culinary and hospitality role.
Shifts are available across three main meal windows throughout the week:
When: Monday through Friday. Choose from three daily meal blocks:
Breakfast Shift: 7:15 AM – 9:00 AM
Lunch Shift: 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM
Dinner Shift: 5:15 PM – 7:00 PM
Age Requirement: Because this opportunity takes place inside an active adult interim housing facility and involves a commercial kitchen environment, all volunteers must be 18 years or older to serve.
Capacity: 1–4 volunteers are needed per standard shift.
Important Note for Large Groups: Teams of 5 or more volunteers must coordinate directly with the site coordinator ahead of time to ensure kitchen space availability.
