Neighbor to Neighbor Network works with the Human Needs Food Pantry in Montclair, NJ to deliver food to seniors and disabled individuals. The Human Needs Food Pantry currently provides weekly groceries to over 500 Bloomfield and Glen Ridge residents. They supply their clients with fresh fruits, vegetables, meat/poultry, and canned goods.

Food delivery volunteers pick up bags of food from The Human Needs Food Pantry the same time each week and deliver them to a set route of about 5 residents who are unable, due to age or disability, to go to the pantry themselves. A food delivery route takes about 1 hour per week. A valid driver's license and personal vehicle is required.

We have food runs Tuesday mornings, Thursday mornings, and Thursday evenings. We are also seeking volunteers to act as a substitutes for any of the delivery runs on an as needed basis for when regular volunteers are sick or on vacation.

This volunteer opportunity is very high impact because for some residents, this is their only source of food. One hour a week makes a tremendous difference.
