Event overview

We will be supporting our community partners at Feeding Tampa Bay's Warehouse. We will be sorting goods inside the warehouse. Be prepared for long periods of standing and lifting. Registration is required online, spaces are limited so please sign up early. Here are some important reminders to help you best prepare for your time with us: You will be volunteering at our warehouse at the Tampa Distribution Center In order to volunteer with us, you MUST wear closed toe shoes. *Your safety is important to us. If you arrive in open-toe shoes, we cannot guarantee an activity for you to participate in and you may be asked to come back another time. We provide all orientation on site at the start of your service - no need to study anything before you see us! Please arrive on time. Parking spaces are conveniently located on both sides of the central parking row outside of our building. Please make sure to park on Feeding Tampa Bay’s side of the parking lot—if you park across our lot, your vehicle may be towed. Please DO NOT park in areas marked with traffic cones. Please DO NOT park in the handicap spaces directly in front of our building unless you have a handicap permit. After signing in at the Volunteer Sign-In station, head straight back to the TECO Community Center and orientation will begin after all volunteers are checked in. We provide free bottled water to you and you'll have access to a snack/soda vending machine. In order to volunteer for this event, we suggest volunteers be at least 5 years old. If you have any questions prior to your volunteer session or need any special accommodations, please do not hesitate to contact our Volunteer Services Team at volunteer@feedingtampabay.org

Who We Are

In 2025, Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) acquired The Mission Continues, bringing two best-in-class organizations together to provide more opportunities for veterans to find community, lead, and serve. Guided by the ethos “If Not Me, Then Who…,” veterans continue their service, build connections, and thrive in their post-military lives by serving as character role models to youth. As a result, communities prosper and the character of our nation’s heroes lives on in the next generation. Learn more about TMF at travismanion.org

Who should volunteer?

Our service projects are for all veterans with a desire to continue their service and for all non-veterans that want to be part of a nationwide movement to transform communities. Please note, age and accessibility accommodations can be made at any project. There is room for everyone to make an impact.
