The second and fourth Fridays of every month the pantry receives on average 3200 pounds of food products from the Greater Chicago Food Depository to aid our community in the battle against hunger. 4 volunteers are needed between 9 and 12 PM to move the food from the truck to the pantry area and stock shelves. Other duties may include rotating older stock into the pantry, breaking down boxes, amongst other tasks.
An ongoing commitment to this role appreciated.

Mission Statement
Elmwood Park Community Church is uniquely positioned and located to have the maximum impact upon the Village of Elmwood Park for the glory of God through various ministries. Two service ministries have been established to aid anyone within the church, the Village of Elmwood Park and surrounding communities via the Food Pantry and Clothes Closet. Food and clothing will be provided to those in need through the financial and material donations of the church, the Greater Chicago Food Depository, other institutions and the community on an emergent basis and weekly on Saturday mornings. These services will be provided regardless of race, religion, sex or color.
Description
Although the Elmwood Park Community Church has been active in the community for many years the Food Pantry and Clothes Closet have only been serving the community on a routine basis since December 2020. Currently we are serving on average 72 households/130 individuals on a weekly basis in the pantry and over 40 in the clothes closet twice a month.
