Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Lakeview Pantry.

Lakeview Pantry sees thousands of volunteers every year, and we are so grateful to have such a committed volunteer corps. We have a wide variety of opportunities for both individuals and groups to volunteer. The receptionist role is unique in that they are the face of the pantry and create a friendly environment for both clients, guests, and volunteers. If this role interests you, we would love to have you as a part of our team!

Mission Statement

Nourishing Hope (formerly Lakeview Pantry) strives to eliminate hunger in our community by: Providing food to fill the basic need of hungry people, increasing the independence of our clients through self-help initiatives and other innovative programs, and raising awareness of poverty and its solution.

Description

Nourishing Hope (formerly Lakeview Pantry) is a dynamic social services organization providing food, mental wellness counseling, and other social services, such as job and housing assistance, to our Chicago neighbors in need. While our doors are open to all, the vast majority of those we serve within our neighborhood may be disabled, working for minimum wage, recently unemployed, or the elderly. Whatever the reason, we are here to help. Founded in 1970, we strive to serve the needs of the whole person-with respect and dignity, always.
