Volunteer Ministry Opportunities for You!

The collaboration between The Shepherd’s Shelf, The Indian Valley Mennonite Church, and The Food Trust Vegetable Basket Program will resume this July.  Local gardeners and members of Indian Valley Mennonite Church will grow and donate surplus produce to local food cupboards.

Volunteers are needed to pick up produce once a week. 
Volunteers are needed on Wednesday nights during the summer months from 6:30 p.m.- 8:00 p.m. to help with distribution of food to clients.

The supports on the shelves in the basement must be varnished per the Montgomery County Health Department.  Volunteers are needed ASAP to complete this project before our next inspection!

Are you available during the day?  Do you have a flexible schedule? Are you able to carry boxes of food to the basement? If you answered yes to these questions, God is calling you! The shepherd’s shelf receives several monthly deliveries of food.  On the second Thursday or Friday of the month, depending on surplus food availability, we receive a USDA bulk shipment.  We also receive a monthly delivery from our wholesale distributor, Karetas Foods; dates and times vary.

Corresponding Secretary Needed:  to write thank you notes and letters for donations made.

If you are able to help in any way, please contact Lois Kadel at 215-256-4336 or at Shepherd's Shelf.
