We are expecting up to 300 families to receive supplemental groceries and need your help! We will be packing and distributing food for our drive-through mobile food market.

Volunteers need to arrive promptly at 8:15am and park adjacent to our building (clients will line up across the street. Please do not park there). Dress for the weather. This is an outdoor event where lifting and carrying food, boxes and bags that may weigh up to 15 pounds or more is required, as well as standing for long periods of time, and loading food into vehicle trunks/truck beds.

Your volunteerism is greatly appreciated. Arlington Charities and your neighbors in need thank you too!

Mission Statement

Our MISSION is to lead and engage our community in the fight against hunger and poverty. ​

Description

As the largest food pantry in Arlington, Texas, we provide supplemental groceries to our neighbors facing food insecurity through various programs such as a drive-through mobile food market on weekday mornings, Monday-Friday and grocery delivery to seniors and those with mobility issues.

Our VISION is to meet the immediate, basic needs of those in our community, partner with other community agencies & organizations to advance our mission and proactively seek new resources and tools to serve those in need.

Our CODE OF PRACTICE will:

  • Instill a sense of dignity in each client, visitor, volunteer and staff person when entering and leaving our facility.

  • Focus on the needs of the clients and what we can do to improve their circumstances.

  • Serve clients with integrity and refrain from judgment of their individual situation.

  • Embrace, value, and champion diversity of all clients, volunteers and staff persons.
