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

Pantry Greeter - This job requires both standing and sitting as you welcome, register and engage in friendly interaction with food pantry clients.

Client Liason - This job requires friendly interaction with food pantry clients and re-stocking of shelves as needed. 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, the ability to multi-task and friendly interaction with food pantry clients.

Data Entry Assistant - This job involves tallying of shopping lists throughout the shift and a final tally at the end of the shift. This is a sit-down job with minimal client interaction. You will receive on-the-job training the first time you work.
