The Faith Café is a program that was developed to feed our neighbors in need. Volunteers participate in the day to day work needed to feed and provide clothing to our neighbors in Tampa.

We need your time

Our Volunteers Make It All Possible.

Automated Sign-up.

If you are interested in volunteering at Faith Cafe, please download the Volunteer Information Packet. We offer several volunteer opportunities and there is an automated sign-up process to help you match up your schedule with our needs for servers and drivers.


Volunteer Opportunities


Dining Room Service and Drivers

Since the majority of our food is prepared off-site at Metropolitan Ministries, we need someone to pick it up daily. Generally, there are three or four containers of hot food, along with bread, and desserts that need to be picked up. After lunch, the containers need to be returned.

Our method of feeding the hungry derives from service. It is our job to bring food to our guests, refill their drinks, and make them feel welcome. Starting at 10:30, we prepare the dining room for our guests. We open the door at 11:30, and cleanup is generally complete by 1:30. We also offer a Sunday dinner that is served from 5:00 to 6:00. Volunteers arrive at 3:30pm and we are usually done before 6:30pm. It can be a little hectic when the dining room is crowded, but we always have a lot of fun.

Angel Closet and Shower Services

We also help guests with our Angel Closet, where clothing and hygiene items are made available. Help hand out items, sort donations and restock the shelves.

Several times a week Faith Cafe offers shower services as well. Volunteers help guests access the private shower trailer, ensure guests have linens and monitor guests waiting in line for the service.

Monthly Off-Site Laundry Service

Laundry service is offered monthly off site on the first Saturday of each month. Details are available at Faith Cafe.
