Harvesting Spirit. Nourishing the Community

Volunteers 

The Yarmouth Food Pantry simply could not operate without the all-volunteer staff.  We are grateful for each and every one of our more than 100 volunteers. If you are looking for a volunteer opportunity, the Yarmouth Food Pantry has many, from stocking shelves and distributing food to clients to collecting donated items from events and transporting thousands of pounds of weekly goods to the food pantry’s facility.

If you are interested in volunteering, please contact our Executive Director Susan Martin at 508-394-0880.

Want to volunteer a few hours a week? 

We distribute food to clients 11 times a month–Tuesdays and Thursdays, weekly, plus the second and fourth Friday of the month as well as the third Saturday of the month. 

We also need help Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to noon, with sorting goods, stocking shelves, cleaning and food pick-up at local vendors.

If you have time during the day and are able to lift at least 30lbs, we could use help with weekly food transport.

 Please contact Susan Martin at 508-394-0880 to discuss these opportunities.

Want to volunteer but don’t have much extra time?

We organize two food drives a year –one in August and the other in November. We are always looking for volunteers to help collect and transport food donations. 

We also host our annual Turkey Shoot golf tournament in November. Volunteers are always needed to help set up and operate this fun and festive event. 

If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Yarmouth Food Pantry, Executive Director Susan Martin at 508-394-0880.
