    Description

    New York Common Pantry works toward the reduction of hunger and food insecurity through an array of programs that function to establish long-term independence for those we serve. Our whole-person approach starts with food provision through the distribution of nutritious, fresh food pantry packages in Choice Pantry and hearty balanced breakfast and dinner in the Hot Meals program.

    New York Common Pantry is looking for volunteers to help serve hot meals to 200-250 food insecure individuals/families any day Monday-Saturday. Please note that volunteers must be 16 (with parental consent) plus.

    3 shifts available:

    • Breakfast meal service from 7:30am to 9am (Tuesday, Thursday, Friday)
    • Meal prep from 10am to 12pm (Monday-Saturday)
    • Help serve hot meals from 1:30pm to 4pm (Monday-Saturday)
