Description
Our Pantry was awarded as the "2024 Nonprofit of the Year" by the Chamber of Commerce of Eastern CT. Food ordering is one of the most important roles within our all-volunteer Pantry. By providing a Client Choice model for our guests, it is important that we are able to order the right types of foods from our suppliers, in particular Foodshare CT, and from local stores. This opportunity requires an understanding of our current food inventory, which we update regularly, to make the right weekly ordering decisions with our team for our guests.
