Walk-Up Mobile Pantry @ America's Best Value Inn

Full

Description

Walk-Up Pantries focus on perishable items, such as fresh produce and dairy as well as shelf stable items. Neighbors select the items they want in a "farmer's market"-style distribution. We make every effort to allow the neighbors complete choice, taking exactly the items and quantities they choose.

Volunteers will be assigned to manage the line, assist with neighbor intake, and prepare food for distribution. For safety reasons, only volunteers who have reserved space may volunteer. Walk-ins will not be permitted. 

  • Team responses are welcome! Please remember to have each person create a profile and response.
  • Volunteers MUST be 12 years or older. An adult must accompany volunteers younger than 15 years old.
  • Wear close-toed shoes
  • We will be outside; please wear comfortable clothing (we recommend layers, a hat, and sunscreen due to the ever-changing weather conditions)
  • Be aware there will not be a place to store personal belongings; please do not bring valuables
  • We ask that any volunteer who does not feel well refrain from attending their volunteer shift
  • Pantries will take place rain or shine
