Delray Beach Community Food Pantry Volunteer

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: CROS Ministries

DBP Vol April 2012
Working together we can make a difference!

We are looking for a volunteer to work one 3 1/2 hour shift per week from 11:45 am to 3:15 pm to help with doing computer intake on Monday's, Tuesday's or Thursday's.

The person helping with computer intake receives training, but needs to be comfortable using a computer.

The intake volunteer is responsible for collecting information from clients, updating and maintaining the Pantry computer database, creating new client records as needed and making sure records and client information are compliant with CROS policies and procedures.

A volunteer needs to be able to handle detailed information in a busy environment.

People who find themselves in a position of having no food are grateful to have a place to go to where they can get groceries to last them a few days. This is a very rewarding volunteer position.

Volunteers must attend a pantry training and orientation session. The hours for the Delray Beach Pantry are 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm Monday through Thursday.

About CROS Ministries

Location:

Mission Statement

The mission of CROS Ministries is to serve the hungry in Palm Beach and Martin Counties through community collaborations.

Description

In 1978, a group of United Methodist Churches joined forces to create Christians Reaching Out to Society, Inc. or as we are known today, CROS Ministries. Over time, we evolved to become both ecumenical and interfaith, forging partnerships with various communities, schools, businesses, civic groups, government entities, and local nonprofits. Today we stand as a beacon of hope, tirelessly working on the front lines to directly benefit our brothers and sisters facing food insecurity.

Our services include distributing food from six brick and mortar food pantries in Delray Beach, Jupiter, Lake Worth Beach, West Palm Beach, Belle Glade, and Indiantown in Martin County and a mobile "pop-up" food pantry serving Greenacres (three sites), Haverhill, Lake Worth Beach, Riviera Beach, West Palm Beach, and Wellington (two sites); serving hot meals and delivering homebound meals to residents in Delray Beach through our Caring Kitchen program; and recovering fresh fruits and vegetables from local fields that are distributed with the help of community partners to local pantries and meal programs through our Gleaning program.
