Volunteer Opportunities:
Weekly help
Our regular volunteer hours are Monday and Tuesday afternoons
We tend to be fully staffed, but regular and substitute openings do occur occasionally. Please fill out the volunteer form. We will contact you if we are in need, but a lengthy period of time may elapse before an opening occurs, so please feel free to check back periodically and let us know of your continued interest.
Do you have a special skill (e.g., communications, technology, accounting) that you think could benefit the Pantry? We’d love to hear from you. Please fill out the volunteer form at volunteer@wellesleyfoodpantry.org.
If you are eager to be of service while awaiting an opening at the Wellesley Food Pantry, please consider helping out our neighbors in Newton. See www.newtonneighbors.org/helping-neighbors for more details on their needs, but drivers to deliver food to clients are especially in demand.
Food Drives
We are so appreciative of the community’s desire to support us in our mission. If we can’t use you as a volunteer, you are always welcome to hold food drives for us, but we ask that you contact first us so we can provide guidance about our greatest needs.
Many organizations and schools run food drives during the year. Food drives don’t have to be large and difficult to manage. If you are interested in running a food drive, please contact our Food Drive Coordinator at fooddrives@wellesleyfoodpantry.org.
