Volunteers are essential to the Guardian Angel food pantry. As a client-choice food pantry, we need volunteers to walk clients through the pantry and help them make selections. Over 6,800 low-income families and seniors a year rely on us for fresh produce, pantry staples, and meat.
A typical day could include food sorting, inspecting, stocking, helping clients shop, or working on a special project. The pantry is open from 9:00am to 4:00pm weekdays. Volunteer shifts are typically between one and three hours once a week.
Without your support, we won't have enough people on hand to help clients, which can lead to delayed appointments. Guardian Angel is one of the oldest and largest client-choice food pantries in St. Louis area. We serve the zip codes 63104 and 63118 with our food pantry and social services team providing assistance and guidance on the road to self-sufficiency for low-income St. Lousians.

Mission Statement
The mission of Guardian Angel Settlement Association is to serve under-resourced community members by helping them improve the quality of their lives and achieve economic independence.
Description
For over 165 years, Guardian Angel’s programs have addressed the range of needs that our neighbors face daily. Our approach is flexible, personal, and compassionate - working 1:1 to gain an understanding of each person’s unique situation. Our goal is to offer a community hub for services and support. Our Early Childhood Education, Social Stability programs, and Self-Sufficiency Workshops allow us to provide a hand-up, not a handout, to those we serve. After basic needs are met, we walk alongside each individual to connect them to holistic support, self-sufficiency classes, and the guidance they need to build a brighter future.
By 2034, Guardian Angel Settlement Association will transform the lives of 5,000 community members annually through equitable access to resources and education leading to self-sufficiency and holistic well-being. We will be their Guardian Angel.
