Volunteer: Food Pantry

Where to Go: The address for the Food Pantry is 1610 S Malcolm X Building 350. Once you pull into the black gate on the campus, you will drive to the backside of building 350 and enter through those doors.

Volunteers 16 or older can volunteer on their own! - Closed-toed shoes are REQUIRED. Dress comfortably and for the weather! - Dress modestly - bare midriffs, crop tops, yoga pants, or very short shorts are not permitted. For shorts, the edge of your shorts must be at least as long as the end of your fingertips with your arms at your side. - A friendly and welcoming demeanor! Please display kindness, respect, and empathy toward our neighbors, fellow volunteers, and staff. - Ability to stand, walk, stoop, bend, and lift at least 10 lbs. throughout your shift. We are currently collecting children's books in both English and Spanish to have available in the Food Pantry for little ones that come through! If you would like to donate books, feel free to bring them when you come to serve OR reach out to BeverlyA@thestewpot.org to coordinate a drop off time! Thank you!
