If you have retail experience or a keen eye for detail and organizational flow, you will be enthusiastic to get your hands in the mix!

Join us at Esther's Pantry. Our pantry provides over 10,000 pounds of food to the community weekly! We will unload and stock food, sort donations and ensure shelves and racks are stocked with healthy foods.

Shifts are Monday from 12:00 pm - 4:30 pm, Tuesday from 1:00 - 5:30 pm and Thursday from 1:00 - 5:30 pm. We also offer Open Pantry Days for any and all individuals/ families facing food insecurity. Open Pantry Days are the 2nd and last Wednesdays of every month. Shifts on Open Pantry Days are 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm.

Esther's Pantry is a program of Our House. Our House provides integrated health and housing services to people with HIV/AIDS. Guided by compassion, collaboration, and respect, we provide 24-hour specialized care, supportive services, and independent housing with support services. Volunteers engaging in this opportunity are directly serving our mission by ensuring all donations are managed, stocked and shared with our clients when they arrive to Esther's Pantry. These spaces are primarily staffed via volunteers. Volunteers may engage in client companionship, supporting our clients throughout their time in Esther's Pantry to find, access and take home foods that will support their nutrition and overall health and well being.
