VOLUNTEERS


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
153 Volunteers gave 424.5 hours of their time to help those who are less fortunate and food deprived. 
THANK YOU for all you do! Trinity's food pantry would not be able to serve our guests without your time and love for serving the Lord. This is truly the Lord's pantry, and Trinity is very thankful for your service.

***Four Volunteer Specialists Needed****
 
Trinity has four pantries a week, and we need four "Specialists"; one at each weekly pantry on  Monday, Tuesday, or Thursday afternoon, or the Tuesday evening pantry. 
 
Each specialist would work with Feed My People and the Quest Food Share Program.  This program is an important resource for food-insecure families, and yet nearly 40% of households receiving food through a pantry in Wisconsin are not enrolled.  
 
Feed My People (FMP) is committed to educating families on the benefits of FoodShare and assisting in the application process. This is why they are looking to Trinity to reach out and assist our guests who are not already enrolled.  Feed My People will provide a 3 hour training session on FoodShare, giving you the tools you need to assist an individual in connecting to the FoodShare benefit. 
 
I am looking for current food pantry volunteers, or new volunteers who see this as a position of interest.  You will be working directly with our guests during one of our pantry times.  What an awesome way to interact with our guests and get additional help for them.  Previous experience is not required - just a heart for serving our community.

If this position interests you, please contact Sharry Hebert at sharry@trinity-ec.org
