Volunteer

This year we have been privileged to have a wonderful group of volunteers who make working at the food pantry a regular part of their week.  We are a fun group and enjoy what we are doing.  We  always welcome new volunteers and encourage participation, especially for the joy it can bring into your life.

If you can spare the time during our operating hours, please stop in for a visit and to see where you can assist.  For example, we are especially in need of bilingual (Spanish/English) workers to assist with some of our Spanish-speaking customers.  We also can use volunteers to assist in carrying boxes and good to cars for some of our clients.

Volunteers may also be needed during other hours when the pantry is not open.  During the winter, firewood is cut and delivered to some homes and volunteers may be needed for assistance.  We also may need drivers to pick up food items from local merchants to be delivered to the pantry.  We also have other needs between pantry hours, so if you are interested in working behind the scened, stop by or call to find out where you can help. 

Also, don’t forget that donations of food or money are regularly accepted (see our “donate” tab).  Volunteers may be needed to pick up and deliver food from food drives, or possibly you could organize and coordinate a drive of your own.  Voluntary fund raisers are also a good way to give back.
