Looking for Volunteer Opportunities? We've got them!


The Mobile Food Pantry has been launched!    It is still in the new stage so adjustments will be made along the way to facilitate this process.   Many people have been asking for volunteer opportunities and we are happy that the Mobile Pantry will provide many for high schoolers and adults!  Community Service hours will be given for this effort.

We were utilizing an on-line tool (Sign-Up Genius) to schedule our volunteers. We are now relying on email. If you want to participate, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator --> volunteers@franklinfoodpantry.org
