Volunteering with Cooking Matters Registration Form

Thank you so much for your interest in volunteering with 18 Reasons in our Cooking Matters program! No professional experience needed, just a passion for sharing the love of good food, home-cooking, and supporting our vision of creating more equity and belonging through food education. We accept volunteers on a rolling basis.

At this point in time, everyone who works with 18 Reasons in any in-person role is required to be vaccinated against COVID-19.

All of our classes are offered in partnership with other community organizations. We work all across the Bay Area and with many different types of organizations. Depending on where you work with us, there may be certain requirements, such as a background check (schools), a TB test (health care clinics), etc. These are not required to be a volunteer with us but may be useful for specific sites.

Find more information about volunteering on our volunteer webpage. Please email all questions to cookingmattersvolunteers@18reasons.org!
