Feeding America Riverside | San Bernardino (FARSB) has partnered with Albertson's Nourishing Neighbors program for a special sweepstake for volunteers! If you volunteer or are looking to, you can now log and track your hours to win grants for FARSB and a chance to win a Year of FREE Groceries!
This limited-time opportunity allows you to win money for yourself and local nonprofits like FARSB, through volunteering your time with nonprofits throughout your community.
How to Get Involved
Step 1: Volunteer
Find a local nonprofit where you can volunteer for available shifts. These can be found here, and you can sign up to volunteer whenever you have free time.
Step 2: Log Your Hours
Once you set up volunteer hours, make sure you input them in the portal here so they count towards your goal. Make sure you log your hours promptly to stay on top of what hours you have logged already and don't miss any!
Step 3: Win Prizes!
Once you have logged your hours, you will be entered to win the Grand Prize of a year's worth of free groceries! Runners-up will win $500 worth of groceries and a match for your local food pantry.
Sweepstakes Dates
Having volunteers throughout the year is a huge help at FARSB, but for the duration of this competition, the logged hours are only between August 1st and October 31st, 2024.
So, make sure you fill up your volunteering schedule and log your hours before the last day for them to count toward your sweepstakes entry!
Things to Remember
Most folks can enter this sweepstakes, but there are a few things to remember when participating. First, you must be 18 or older to participate, so children 17 and younger, though they could volunteer, won't be able to log hours for this competition.
Second, you can volunteer as often as you want, but for the sweepstakes, you can log your hours up to 10 entries per volunteer. These are the only ones that will be entered into the final drawing for the Grand Prize.
Nourishing Neighbors uses the Catchafire site, but you do not need to create a login and register for an account to enter the sweepstakes. Simply use the form linked in this blog to search for volunteer opportunities and log hours, nothing else is required for entry.
