Pantry will be VERY busy "going forward" due to the closing of another pantry in the area and because pantry is chronically short on volunteers.

Fyi__ Friday is the day for deliveries to the pantry so this adds much more to the work load for that day.

Address is: 1150 27th Ave SW Cedar Rapids,Ia 52404 (intersection of 12th St and 27th Ave SW)

Web url for pantry is: togetherweachieve.org

Please note: For Delivery Day Fridays, there are usually volunteers working from 1pm onward so if you can arrive earlier than 420pm, you would be welcomed! (just push the white button above/right of white door to left of bay doors to be let in).

The pantry will be open to guests from 430pm to 630pm with time after 630pm (as needed) for volunteers to assist with final cleanup/miscellaneous tasks.

It is recommended that you park across the street south of the pantry in the vacant parking lot. Pantry has permission for vehicles to park there.
The pantry parking lot can get VERY crowded! Also, by parking across the street, you free up a space for a client. :)

Work entails:
\- breaking down cardboard
\- stocking shelves
\- cardboard/trash bags to dumpsters
\- carrying out food bags/boxes as needed for honored guests
\- escort honored guests to assist them with their selections
\- other miscellaneous tasks as requested by pantry managers

Fyi, there is a small chance that I will be a bit late on 12/6 due to earlier commitment in the day.

Hope to see new/more "IO" members at the pantry! :)
