Volunteers are the backbone of Matt Talbot Kitchen & Outreach. Whether it is purchasing ingredients, preparing food, serving a meal, helping at the reception desk, working in the garden, or hosting a donation drive or special event-- we appreciate your investment of time and resources and want to assist you in any way we can. Here are the latest updates:

Attention Team Captains!

Team Captains, please take a moment to review your 2026 serving dates and check whether any fall on holidays your team may be unable to fulfill. The sooner we receive notice, the sooner we can post those dates as available for other groups.

We truly appreciate the teams who are able to serve on their scheduled dates — your commitment makes a big difference for our guests!

Volunteer Reminders

Please remember that all new team members must sign a waiver of liability before volunteering. The forms are located on the prep table next to the office supply holder, on the top shelf.

Thank you for helping us keep everything up to date and ensuring a smooth experience for everyone who serves.

Save the Date for Huskers Helping the Homeless!

The 30th annual Huskers Helping the Homeless is officially scheduled for October 10! Mark your calendars now and keep your eyes peeled for more information to come.

As always, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Anthony or me with any questions or concerns. Thank you for all that you do to support our guests and our mission.
