How To Get Involved

Make Financial Contributions: We’re very dependent on donations from individuals, corporations, clubs, churches, and other organizations. The Network can also use in-kind donations such as printing, truck rentals, and a variety of other items. Click here.
- Monthly Sponsors - Choose a month and set a fundraising goal. The method of fundraising is up to you!

Be a Volunteer: We have many groups and individuals out in the fields to glean, but we are always looking for more! Some come out throughout the growing season and others make it a once-a-year occasion. Here are our regular volunteer positions.
- Field Gleaner: Join us for a few hours in the field whenever you are available.
- Gleaning Advocate: Speak to local groups and churches about The Gleaning Network, or represent us at a local organizational fair or market.
- Field Supervisor: Supervise a group in the field for a gleaning event.
- Agency Liason: Serve as the contact person for your favorite/local food assistance program, and help coordinate the delivery of gleaned produce.

Let us know about Growers & Agencies: Growers generously donate their excess produce, and we are always looking for more farmers to sign-on to share their crops. We need you to also let us know about local food assistance agencies that are able to accept our produce deliveries. Click here to see who benefits. Click here to see who shares their produce.
Tell the Story: We are dependent on people like you to tell your friend and families about gleaning. Share the story and invite folks to join the Network with their efforts and contributions. Find us on Facebook, and follow us on Twitter (username: gleantexas).
