Before you even begin thinking about volunteering, ask yourself – Am I well enough to volunteer?
Your safety and limiting the spread of COVID-19 is everyone’s main priority. We encourage you to review and adhere to the recommendations on the Buncombe County readiness site on how best to avoid COVID-19 and what to do if you think you might have it.
Bounty & Soul is a community-based non-profit with a mission to connect people to food, education and each other.
Looking for a weekend workout while paying it forward? We are hoping to enlist a few robust volunteers who are willing and able to sync up with our weekend driver to pick up donations from local store-level partners.

To sign up for this volunteer project, simply
- click "respond" above to secure your spot and receive next step instructions from Buncombe County
- and please DO NOT SHOW UP IF YOU DID NOT RESPOND
Why does this matter? We have to limit the number of people attending each project. This helps everyone stay safe by following COVID-19 specific safety measures. Please understand that if you show up on-site without registering first, you may be turned away so that the agency can maintain safety procedures. Safety is our top priority and we want to be sure needs are met while also being safe. Click HERE for current NC safety guidelines. Hands On Asheville-Buncombe is not responsible for opportunities managed by partner agencies. If you are onsite at a volunteer opportunity and don't feel safety guidelines are being followed, please connect with onsite project organizers and if not addressed, please let us know by completing our Volunteer Experience Form.
