About this Opportunity

The Ollivier Community Center is seeking compassionate, dependable volunteers to support our Food Pantry operations twice a month on Saturdays from 8:30am to 12:00pm. Our pantry serves families facing food insecurity and provides essential groceries in a welcoming, dignified environment.

We believe food is more than nourishment - it's stability, dignity, and hope. 

Volunteer Responsibilities:

  • Sorting and organizing food donations
  • Packing grocery bags and food boxes
  • Assisting with client check-in and distribution
  • Light lifting (up to 25 lbs)
  • Helping maintain a clean, organized pantry space
  • Offering a warm and respectful presence to community members

Who We're Looking For:

  • Individuals 18+
  • Friendly, respectful, and team-oriented
  • Able to stand for portions of the shift
  • Passionate about serving families in need

No prior experience is necessary - just a heart to serve.

Why Volunteer With Us?

  • Directly impact local families
  • Build meaningful community connections
  • Earn volunteer service hours
  • Be part of a mission-centered team creating real change

Whether you can commit to one Saturday or both, your time makes a difference
