Volunteer Spotlight
”When I first started volunteering it was all task oriented, but now it is more relational. Opportunities to engage with people in the community, learn their names, and make sure that their shopping experience is a happy one. I love serving our guests and watching the food insecurities dissipate. Even though the need is plenty and in the mist of hard times, these moments help me reevaluate what’s really important in life. It’s all relational!” —Kevin

Donating money helps the Pantry respond quickly to client needs. Your donation allows us to pay for our basic expenses and buy food items that we can't get from the Oregon Food Bank or food drives.
