When someone walks into one of our 12 food pantry locations across Fort Wayne, they're often facing one of the hardest weeks of their life. Your job is simple but powerful: greet them with dignity, help them select nutritious food, and make sure they leave with what they need. You'll stock shelves, pack food boxes, check expiration dates, and keep the pantry organized and welcoming.
The work is physical—lifting up to 25 lbs, standing for extended periods—but it's also deeply relational. This is where food insecurity meets human kindness, and you're the bridge.
We have pantries throughout the city, so there's likely one near you. Volunteers must be 18+ (or accompanied by an adult) and complete a brief orientation. Flexible scheduling available.
Want to help feed your neighbors with respect? Fill out our volunteer interest form to find the pantry closest to you and share your availability.
