Northampton Area Food Bank:

Providing some information for volunteering at the Northampton Area Food Bank. As with other agencies, they are always in need of volunteers.

During the month, there are designated days when people can sign up to receive food and on other days of the week they then come to the Food Bank and pick up the food for their families (usually Saturday).

The second and third Wednesday and Friday of the month is when volunteers pack canned goods, pasta, snacks, fruit, soup and other food in grocery bags, so they are ready for people to pick up. Packing the bags usually takes 2 to 3 hours depending on how many families will be picking up and how many volunteers are there to help. There is no minimum amount of time volunteers need to stay at the Food Bank - any amount of much time you can spend is appreciated.

The first Monday of the month is when the Food Bank receives bulk items from the County food bank, Heavy lifting is required so the volunteers on this day are usually men.

There is always something to do and volunteers are always needed. If you have questions, you can certainly call the Food Bank directly or just ask Bob or Joni Snyder.
