Volunteering at SSIP Food Closet
The Food Closet relies at least a dozen volunteers each day committed to the mission of providing food to those in the community who are experiencing food insecurity
Our Volunteers
The superheroes of SSIP are the volunteers who have dedicated to SSIP not only hours of distributing to clients, but additional time running food pick-ups, organizing supply areas, cleaning, providing leadership in variety of roles supporting our mission, and much more. We simply would not be the organization we are without volunteers,
“My involvement with SSIP began after seeing Simon on a news clip during the 2021 Thanksgiving holiday. I volunteered once or twice in December 2021 and have volunteered regularly since January 2022. It is an honor and a privilege to serve and support an organization committed to providing emergency food and resources to our community. I am grateful for the opportunity to participate in the food distribution and client intake process alongside a group of dedicated staff and volunteers.”
Blessings, Dyhana Stewart
