ORGANIZATION: House of Hope

Food Pantry

Join our team and empower Martin County residents to overcome hunger & hardship!

Each of House of Hope's branches features a Client Choice food pantry and a thrift store. Volunteers can be trained to perform any of the tasks listed below. Tell us your interests, and we will make sure you feel fulfilled by your volunteer service at House of Hope!

Client Choice Food Pantry Volunteers:

Ensure our clients have a dignified experience "shopping" in our Client Choice Food Pantry for the nutritious groceries that benefit their households most. The food in our pantries is entirely free to clients, and they are actually able to choose what food they want from each category. Help out in one of our pantries by:

  • Sorting donations and stocking shelves
  • Assisting clients
  • Quality control of pantry foods and items
  • Check-out counter

Thrift Store Volunteers:

In addition to operating our clothes closet program for clients, our thrift stores generate approximately 21% of House of Hope’s income, allowing us to continue providing vital services to those in need. Help us in one of our thrift stores by:

  • Sorting and pricing donations
  • Arranging and displaying inventory on the sales floor
  • Greeting and assisting customers and/or clients
  • Cash register check-out
