Regular Distribution (Wednesdays)

- Interview clients
- Package bags of groceries
- Divide food from the Food Depository into family size portions

Weekly

Food is picked up from the Food Depository and several other places. Help is needed to unload the truck and store it at the pantry.

Monthly

Groceries are delivered to home-bound clients. We currently are able to make deliveries to only a dozen clients. With more help, we could do more.

Fundraising

We are looking for exciting ideas in order to raise funds for our pantry.  You can also volunteer your time during one of our fundraisers throughout the year.

Administration

Volunteers help with office functions such as answering phones, filing, correspondence, mailings, record keeping, fundraising and many other things as well.

Community Service Hours

Students who are in need of a location to complete their community service hours are invited to volunteer at the pantry.

Food Drives

We are looking for interested organizations that would like to hold food drives for the pantry.  Since we are in need of food year round, we would like organizations to volunteer to pick a month in which to hold a food drive.

Interested in volunteering in any way?  Please contact the food pantry at 773 283-6296 or email: info@irvingparkfoodpantry.org    We welcome you to help us with our mission of helping our neighbors in need.
