The Cornerstone Food Cupboard is run entirely by volunteers. Currently we have over 50 volunteers who serve the Cupboard each week in a variety of the following tasks:
Distribution of Food
Preparing bags of food for distribution to clients
Checking in and recording clients receiving food
Distributing prepacked bags of food
Registering new clients
Grocery Store Donations
Picking up produce, meat, bread, and pastry from ten stores
Processing grocery store donations
Preparing bags of produce for distribution to clients
Non-Perishable Food Donations
Picking up and storing Foodshare donations
Picking up and storing ShopRite $5 and $10 bag donations
Processing food donations from churches, individuals, and organizations
The volunteer team provides 750-800 hours of service monthly to the Cupboard. They have chosen to volunteer because they want to help make a difference in people’s lives and they certainly do make a difference for the 575 households who obtain food assistance at the Cupboard.
