Volunteers are an essential part of the Wachusett Food Pantry. We are a 100% volunteer run operation and we always welcome new volunteers.

  • The average time commitment is 3 to 6 hours per month, on Friday or Saturday.

  • Volunteers must be in 9th Grade or older.

  • Volunteers must arrive on distribution day by 8:15am and can expect to leave just after 11am.
