Join our food security working group
We are seeking dedicated student volunteers to join its Working Group for the Food Security project. This working group will support the development and operation of a new RPIRG-led Food Security program. This opportunity is ideal for students who are passionate about food justice, community care, and building sustainable, student-led support systems on campus.
Becoming involved with the work that RPIRG does on and off of campus benefits every party involved: the community, the organization, and the volunteer.
Volunteers for RPIRG can do any combination of the following:
- Volunteer in the Green Patch and Campus Orchard
- Contribute to event or campaign planning
- Do classroom talks and table for RPIRG at events
- Make and hang posters or buttons
- Support our food security project
- Whatever else you want/we need!

Many of our working groups are often on the look out for volunteers. These groups hold their own events and campaigns throughout the year. Information about each working group can be found here.

- Leadership and project experience

- Letters of recommendation or references
- Meeting like minded people
- And... sometimes free food!
