The St. Vincent de Paul food pantry serves the poor in assisting them with food and general items of necessity. The food pantry distributes an average of 28,000 pounds of food to an average of 600 families each month. Volunteers are needed to help sort and clean donations and serve clients who come into the food pantry. They play a critical role in keeping the food pantry staffed and open and serving clients.
Volunteers have a variety of shifts available with the food pantry operating from 9-11 a.m. and 1-3 p.m. on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Volunteers will be trained for their tasks and have supervision on-site. Those interested need to be able to lift 5 lbs, stand for extended periods of time and have compassion for those in need of services. The dress code is clean and casual with jeans being fine though no open toed shoes.
