The Goodman Center’s food pantry is looking for some more hands! We’re looking for new volunteers to join our team so we can continue providing the best possible service to our community. We offer a variety of shifts — some focused on stocking shelves and organizing donations, and others that involve supporting customers while they shop. Two types of shifts are-
Prep/Donation Sorting & Restocking- These volunteers work during non-shopping hours with donations and delivery orders. Duties include sorting through carts, boxes and bins of food and household items and stocking shelves in our pantry. Volunteers must be comfortable with some lifting & bending, working in a team environment as well as sorting through produce to determine what should be kept vs composted.
Shopping Hour volunteers- Help with the shopping experience. Volunteers help keep things flowing, enforce shopping limits, occasional shelf restocking and possibly some cleanup after shoppers leave. Volunteers must be comfortable working with diverse populations, customer service and with enforcing shopping limits.
Help is especially needed during our Monday prep hours (10am-Noon) on a mostly weekly basis.
All shifts are generally during the day, Monday-Thursday.
If interested, please respond to this opportunity and you will hear from our volunteer manager shortly.
