The JFS Mobile Food Pantry provides food assistance in areas of need for those facing food insecurity. The Mobile Pantry travels to inner city neighborhoods and housing complexes with high percentages of food insecurity and to community and recreation centers to reach those with transportation barriers, and locations we serve during the summer months through our Lunchbox Express program. Removing transportation barriers ensures families experiencing food insecurity will have continued access to healthy, fresh, and culturally relevant foods such as produce, meats, and dried goods, as well as information on how to access the more than 30 programs and services offered by JFS.
Assist in the set up and distribution of food to neighborhood areas where people have limited access to healthy food. Track shopper information to keep an accurate count at the sites. Greet all customers and ensure they have a positive shopping experience. Sites are subject to change, therefore volunteers must be flexible.
