The UPC Food Pantry invites you to join our volunteer crew! When would I work? On a Tuesday or Thursday from 11:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. , one afternoon a month (or as many as you wish). What would I do? Work with 3 or 4 other volunteers. You might guide a client through our "store" to help them choose their groceries; greet and “check in” our clients; help to stock shelves. If you and a friend would like to work together, we can schedule that for you. You will feel good about the time you spend with us.
