Group Volunteering

Groups of over five people or more are able to volunteer as a group by filling out this google form.

Opportunities for groups of up to 15 people are available during regular food pantry or clothes closet volunteer hours. Groups with over 15 people may be asked to volunteer outside of our operation hours.

We ask that groups please request a date at least two weeks in advance so that we can properly accommodate your visit.

If you have questions about group volunteering, please reach out to volunteer@pilsenfoodpantry.com.

Typical group tasks include

  • pantry prep

  • food box assembly

  • clothes closet organization

  • special projects like gardening, bike repairs, cleaning, painting, organizing, or other based on group skills

Corporate and for profit groups are asked to make a financial donation along with their volunteer efforts. To learn more about corporate partnerships, click here.

Non-profit, faith based, and some school groups are asked to host donation drives to replenish high demand items. If you have questions about those items, please reach out to volunteer@pilsenfoodpantry.com
