"I volunteer here knowing that the distance between my donated time/money,
and the person receiving the benefit is practically zero."

 

 

Volunteer your time

If you volunteer at our food pantry, you'll work on a team (of 5–10 volunteers during the day and 3–5 in the evening) to perform tasks like:

  • Sorting food and clothing donations

  • Stocking food shelves

  • Unloading donations from trailers

  • Filling food orders

  • Organizing clothing racks

  • Picking up donations from local schools and businesses

  • Driving your truck or trailer to haul donated items

 

You can volunteer at these times:

Monday and Wednesday: 1–3 p.m.
Tuesday and Thursday: 9–11 a.m and 6–8 p.m.
Saturday: 9–11 a.m.

If you'd like to sign up to volunteer, please contact us and someone from our leadership team will contact you to discuss the opportunities we have. When you arrive, we'll ask you to fill out a contact form. While we appreciate everyone who's willing to help, we ask that volunteers be at least 15 years old.
