People are able to walk on to the bus, shopping for groceries at no cost. There is no qualification requirements to shop. This is a public event, so anyone is welcome!

Volunteers can expect to assist with stocking the mobile pantry, helping shoppers to receive items, and un-stocking items among other tasks throughout the day.

About Reach Services INC

Mission Statement

We are a nonprofit that provides free resources aiming to serve those experiencing homelessness, low-income, and at-risks situations. Our goal is to bridge the gap between people and the resources they need. The vision is that everyone has the opportunity to gain access to the resources they need to obtain a better life.

Description

We have three focus areas of service. The first is life enrichment services to enrich lives and alleviate circumstances which includes providing food, clothing, hygiene items, housing assistance, billing assistance, and emergency assistance.

The second area of service is youth and families. We serve youth and families providing access to healthy snack packs, infant needs, transportation assistance, early learning services, educational resources, and quarterly community enrichment events to encourage family engagement and positive activities.

The third area of service is support navigating the systems of resources available. Often times clients need help in more than one area of life so we work together with Pinellas nonprofits to get clients access to all the help that is available to them.
