Pantry Volunteer Opportunities

We encourage you to consider all volunteer opportunities described below and then sign up online.

Client Intake - Working outside, you interact with the client at their vehicle to gather information, so volunteers can shop for their needs. This position requires some training.

Client Liason - This job involves shopping for clients off their shopping lists. Plan to be on your feet 3-4 hours. For your first time, please sign up as a Client Liaison Trainee.

Once you feel comfortable with the job, you can sign up for one of the regular client liaison spots.

Data Entry - This job requires special training and is a sit-down job. It involves the use of a computer and the ability to multi-task.

Car Loader - This is an outside job where you take the groceries gathered and place them into the client's vehicle with little to no contact.

Food Delivery Processing - This job involves unpacking, sorting and storing food from our various vendors. Food delivery takes place when the pantry is closed to the public. This is a behind-the-scenes job with no food pantry client interaction. You will receive on-the-job training.

Please schedule two on-the-job training sessions prior to working alone.
