Unity (formerly Wallace Memorial) Food Pantry
Unity (formerly Wallace Memorial) Food Pantry Needs Volunteers to help make large pickups of food from the Food Bank on the first Tuesday of each month. These volunteers will meet in the church parking lot at 7:15 a.m., and take the church van to Duquesne, where they will load the van with food for the Unity Food Pantry. Once back at the church, the volunteers will help to unload the van and take the food down to the pantry. Total commitment will be about three hours each time. Volunteers should be healthy and able to lift up to 50 pounds. Food received from the Food Bank makes up over 75% of the food we distribute to clients, so these pickups are an essential part of us being able to provide ample nutritious food for our ever-growing client base. If you can help out with one or more first-Tuesday pickups, please contact Sally Petro at sarpetro@msn.com or 412-531-2868.
