Project Concern is a local food pantry and clothing center that provides emergency food, clothing and household item assistance for our neighbors in need in Cudahy and Saint Francis.
We are seeking volunteers to help out at the pantry with donation sorting, office assistance and other tasks. 1-2 hours a month is all you would need to volunteer and we would love to have you.
The ability to provide a warm, friendly place for those needing assistance depends solely on volunteer help and your generosity will help local families!
Please call 414-744-0645 and ask for Patrick to sign up today!

Description
Project Concern of Cudahy - St. Francis is a food pantry that provides emergency food and personal care items for households whose income is 185% of the poverty line, this is a guideline set down by the federal government. The goal of the pantry is to help alleviate hunger, demonstrate community compassion and provide patrons with referrals to other community resources and to address the underlying causes of poverty through advocacy and empowerment.
The pantry has 2 part-time employees. Additionally over 70 regular volunteers do a variety of invaluable tasks that keep the pantry humming.
Hunger Task Force provides much of the food that the pantry distributes. However, the pantry still needs additional help to respond to the immediate nutritional needs of low-income people living in the cities of Cudahy and St. Francis. Project Concern works with local congregations, businesses and the community at large to meet those needs.
