Emergency Food Pantry

Volunteers Needed:

Do you have a few hours to spare each month?

We are currently in need of assistance checking expiration dates, bagging groceries, and interacting with families.

This is a great opportunity for those who can speak Spanish, so as to help communicate with some of the families, and for students seeking service hours.

Schedules are flexible: Some volunteers come weekly, others help with our pantry openings, and some come only occassionally.

Please contact:
Micki Prokop (201-788-0911) or
Beverly Dalzell (201-988-5171)
if you would like to help or have any questions.
