Neighborhood House, Inc. Food Pantry serves the residents of Jefferson County, Kentucky. Neighborhood House was established in 1896 as the first settlement house in Kentucky.

We are currently seeking volunteers to help with some of our Food Pantry needs. Neighborhood House is in need of a driver to help with scheduled pick-ups from the Dare To Care warehouse. This volunteer would help by
- Driving the Neighborhood House truck or van to the DTC warehouse
- Loading food items into the vehicle and delivering them to Neighborhood House
- We would also like to utilize this volunteer to help with other driving opportunities as well. We have multiple residents who are unable to travel to Neighborhood House Food Pantry either because of disability, age, or lack of transportation. This volunteer would be delivering food boxes/items to these residents at a scheduled time one time per month.
- Volunteers for the opportunity must be 21+ years old with a valid driver's license and clean driving record (they would be put on our insurance if utilizing our vehicle)., and have the ability to lift a minimum of 10 lbs.
Additionally, we are seeking volunteers to help in our food pantry. A typical volunteer is tasked with (at the moment)
- Preparing boxes of non-perishable food items
- Restocking shelves
- Assisting residents with their food boxes. Our greatest needs for this volunteer position are when our food pantry is open, Monday-Friday from 10am-1pm.
- We also are in need of volunteers during the 1st Wednesday of the month for food delivery and stocking as well as the first Thursday and Friday of the month which tends to be our peak times for the food pantry.
- Volunteers for this opportunity must be 15+ years old, and will be standing for the duration of the time (3 hours).
