Each year, Cooking Matters volunteers empower thousands of families with the skills and confidence to prepare healthy, affordable meals. We offer programming across the state through a variety of local partnerships. Check out our programming and event calendar for opportunities to get involved in your community.

How to Use This Calendar:

• Settings default to include all events for all of our team members across the state. Use the Search Options to narrow down opportunities that work best for you.
  • Select desired categories in “Event Filters” and click “Search” if you want to look for specific types of opportunities.
  • Search by zip code (plus an optional radius) to find opportunities nearest you.
  • Searching by “Coordinator Name” is primarily intended for internal use. However, if you are looking to work with a specific coordinator, enter their name and click “Search.”
• To volunteer, simply click on an event, enter your information, and click “Submit.”
• Volunteers are asked to complete a New Volunteer Training before your first course or tour. If you have not yet been trained, please search the Calendar to sign up for a training near you.
  • Select “Trainings,” enter a zip code (plus optional radius), and click “Search.”

Volunteering, or sharing our strengths, is a way to create community wealth.

Thank you for sharing your strengths with us!
