Community Fridge Stewardship Pledge Form

Community fridges are transforming neighborhoods by providing free, accessible food to anyone who needs it—no questions asked. But keeping these mutual aid resources running smoothly takes a village of committed stewards who can help stock, maintain, and coordinate these essential food-sharing spaces.

This Community Fridge Stewardship Pledge Form makes it easy for mutual aid organizers, neighborhood groups, and nonprofit organizations to recruit and coordinate volunteers who want to support local food access initiatives. Whether you're running a single community fridge or managing a network across your city, this template helps you gather meaningful commitments, match volunteers with specific roles, and build the infrastructure needed to reduce food waste while fighting food insecurity.

The form captures everything from availability and food handling experience to specific ways people want to contribute—whether that's restocking, cleaning, coordinating donations, or advocating for policy change. Built-in conditional logic adapts questions based on volunteer interests, making the pledge process feel personal and purposeful.

Paperform's flexible design means your pledge form can match your community's brand and values, while calculation fields and conditional workflows help you automatically route different types of volunteers to appropriate coordinators. Connect submissions to Stepper to create automated onboarding workflows that send welcome emails, training materials, and shift reminders based on each person's pledge commitments.

For organizations managing multiple fridge locations or broader mutual aid networks, this template helps you build the consistent, reliable volunteer base needed to keep community resources accessible, safe, and welcoming for everyone.
