Are you interested in giving back to your community? Our Mobile Markets are mobile food pantries where we serve 20-70 people at each distribution. With our refrigerated truck we are able to offer fresh produce, dry goods, bread, and hygiene products to different housing communities across Taunton and Brockton!

Our Mobile Market volunteers work directly with the community in distributing produce and shelf stable items to people who need them, in different locations through the Metro South area on a rotating monthy basis.

Please contact Mary Cathryn Evans for more information!
Email: mcevans@bgcmetrosouth.org

Volunteers enjoy the opportunity to meet people, give fresh food to people who need it, and take home a bag of groceries for themselves!

About BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS OF METRO SOUTH INC

Location:

19 COURT STREET, TAUNTON, MA 02780, US

Mission Statement

Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro South is the preeminent youth development organization in Southeastern Massachusetts, serving more than 2,500 youth ages 5-18 annually from nearly 50 communities at our Clubhouses in Brockton and Taunton, Camp Riverside, and community extension sites. BGCMS is fueled by a critical mission "to nurture strong minds, healthy bodies and community spirit through youth-driven, high-impact programming in safe and fun environments" to ensure that every child has a positive place to spend their out-of-school-time hours. We hold an intrinsic belief that every child deserves an equal chance to pursue the American Dream, to have a genuine opportunity to realize their full potential to achieve a great future.

Description

As chartered members of Boys & Girls Clubs of America, we employ the national Movement's "Formula for Impact" model that focuses on three priority outcomes: Academic Success, Healthy Lifestyles, and Character & Leadership Development.

We believe in an interdisciplinary approach to youth development, and so we work to address the root causes of the challenges facing our region’s youth. When a child's basic needs - from nurturing to nutrition - are not met, they struggle to thrive in the classroom and to make smart choices during out-of-school-time.

Our Clubs' aim to drive systematic change by tackling issues head-on, talking early and often with our youth about the importance of setting goals, leveraging opportunities, and developing healthy relationships with others and most importantly with themselves.

Every day, we’re helping youth build great futures for themselves, their families, and their communities.
