Right now, we have plenty of volunteers but this is going to change in the coming months. You can register to volunteer and we’ll be in touch when we need you. If you’d like to help in a practical way right now, you could make a tax deductible donation or you could help stock The Pantry’s shelves with a donation of non-perishable food.

Do you know a local food business that might like to help regularly?
