The Hope Partnership is looking for volunteers to assist with their food pantry operations on Monday, Tuesday, and/or Wednesdays. Volunteers would not need to serve on all three days or every week. Any time you can give will be appreciated.
On Mondays from 10 am until 1 pm, volunteers are needed to prepare anywhere between 200-250 food bags.
On Tuesdays from 10 am until 1 pm, volunteers prepare other items, such as hygiene kits, diapers, and walk-up bags (an alternative for people experiencing homelessness) for the food distribution. Volunteers may also be helping unload the truck and stocking up the inventory in the Fellowship Hall.
On Wednesdays from 8 am until 1 pm, volunteers are needed to operate the food distribution. Volunteers would be asked to direct traffic and load food into vehicles.
