09 May News From the Food Pantry
Volunteers help in many ways
Two groups from the Arcadia University Men’s Soccer Team recently volunteered at our Food Pantry in Roslyn. They were incredibly helpful with sorting donations, stocking the pantry, packing bags, taking groceries out to clients, and more. Members of the Blue Bell Rotary also volunteered for a day of service. LaToya, the pantry manager, led the group on a tour, discussing the facility’s impact on community members who rely on it and sharing ways that groups and individuals can support our mission. The group then took time to clean and organize the pantry, ensuring it remains an inviting space for the neighbors who visit. We deeply appreciate your amazing volunteer support!
How can you help?
Volunteer drivers needed
We are currently seeking volunteers who can dedicate just one day a week to pick up donated groceries from a local supermarket for our Food Pantry in Roslyn. This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of the vital food rescue effort—helping prevent perfectly good food from going to waste while ensuring it reaches our neighbors in need. Your involvement will make a direct and meaningful impact, providing nutritious meals to those facing food insecurity and supporting sustainability in our community. Join us in making a difference—your time and effort can truly transform lives! If you’re interested, please reach out to Food Pantry Manager LaToya at food@fpmontco.org or (267) 318-0607.
