After two years of pandemic, there continues to be an incredible amount of need out there. 2021 was yet another record year with regards to number of clients served. On a fairly regular basis the pantry receives donations of food or non-perishable goods from local businesses which help supplement our regular deliveries from food drives and the Greater Boston Food Bank. These donations are so important and help us continue to provide our clients with nourishment and sometimes a much-needed treat (think Table Talk Pies).
However, these donations (and sometimes food that we’ve purchased from various vendors) need to be picked up from the company or business that has offered them. We are seeking volunteers who would be interested in being part of a group of individuals that we can contact on an as needed basis to go get the donated items and deliver them to the pantry, usually at a specific time. In most cases an SUV or other large car would be required.
