The Little Pantry That Could is desperately seeking a Great Person with a Truck to pick up food at Second Harvest and deliver it to the pantry in North Nashville (about 3 miles away). Pickup is @ 8:30am on Friday mornings. Takes about an hour. Lifting of 15 pounds or less.
The Little Pantry That Could is located in the heart of North Nashville, which is an area with very few resources for those in need. We help appx 200 families each week make ends meet with groceries, produce and dairy items. If we don't fill this volunteer opportunity, our food supply is cut in half. Become part of something very special!

Mission Statement
MISSION STATEMENT We provide produce and shelf stable items free of charge on a weekly basis to anyone in need. There are no questions asked - there is no judgment. We shop "one on one" with each person and use a "Client Choice" format in order to eliminate food waste. This also allows us to make a personal connection with each and every shopper. We make sure that everyone knows that they are cared for at The Little Pantry That Could. While we are primarily a food pantry, we are about more than just filling a bag with food, we are about filling a need - whatever that need may be. We provide referrals to other agencies for specific needs. We coordinate with other local organizations to host Food Stamp Clinics, Housing Clinics, Employment and Healthcare Clinics. We treat each person who enters our doors with dignity and respect. Each shopper is seen as a unique individual who not only receives from us, but also contributes by becoming a part of TLPTC Family.
Description
We are a small food pantry with a big heart!
We provide staples and fresh produce to approximately 200 families a week - people without homes, retired people, single moms and children. Real People With Real Needs. Our goal is to do more than provide food - we strive to make a personal connection with every shopper and let them know that they are cared for.
