Our Monday volunteers tackled 10 pallets of food from North Texas Food Bank this week. These dedicated volunteers make the receiving, sorting and stocking look easy… they have a system that really works!
Volunteer teens are so thoughtful and have bonded with others of all ages. They brought in some homemade Rice Krispy treats with initials that stand for “Amazing Grace / Fight Hunger Together”.
Looking to give back in a way that matters? Call 972-292-7241 or visit our Volunteer page to schedule yourself, your family or your church or corporate group to volunteer. There’s always work to do!
The North Texas Food Bank delivers thousands of pounds of food to their partner agencies across the metroplex. Amazing Grace Food Pantry is one of these grateful agencies. Without NTFB, we wouldn’t be able to distribute over 23,000 pounds of food to families each week in Collin County. Your monthly donations help contribute to the mission. #Donate today to help #FightHunger Together!
I first learned about Amazing Grace Food Pantry through our church web site and have been volunteering at AGFP since early 2018. I started volunteering as a way to give back to our local communities. Friends have helped me in various ways over the years and it feels good to finally be able to give back in a tangible way.
Within a few months of volunteering, I quickly realized that this is much more than just providing food and nutrition to people in need. AGFP is an organization of multiple families. The clients on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays connect, bond, support, and learn from each other. The same is true for the volunteers helping each day. We connect as a team, work together for an incredible cause, and learn from amazing people – clients and volunteers alike. We are all there to support each other through life’s many challenges and successes.
It is great to be a part of the team!
Take the time to read some of the testimonials from clients and volunteers on our website. Volunteer or donate this year. It will bless you!
