The Food Bank of Ain is launching an appeal for solidarity for its major annual collection, to be held on Friday, November 6, Saturday, November 7, and Sunday, November 8, 2026, seeking 1,600 volunteers throughout the department.

For its annual collection, the Food Bank of Ain is seeking the help of the department's residents. The association needs 1,600 volunteers to carry out this essential operation for the benefit of the most disadvantaged.
The volunteers' mission is simple and concrete: to welcome and inform customers at the entrance of partner stores, then distribute bags and collect food donations at the exit. The commitment requires only two to three hours of time and directly contributes to local solidarity.
Whether you wish to volunteer alone, with family, or with friends, you can directly contact the Food Bank of Ain for information or to sign up. Volunteers are encouraged to spread the word to help the association mobilize as many people as possible.
