Each week, GPC volunteers pick up food donations from Safeway at Falls Grove and deliver them to St. Martin’s Food Pantry on Summit Ave. and Rt. 355. The donations are non-expired excess products — baked goods, deli items, and produce — collected from the store’s receiving dock and delivered that same morning.
Pick-ups take place on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays at 10:00 am and take about an hour. We work in pairs, and the lead volunteer gives the receiving dock a quick call around 9:00 am to let them know we’re on our way. Most items arrive already boxed, and we bring a few banana boxes along for loose items.
Food Donation Pick-Up Volunteers Needed
It’s a simple, meaningful way to serve our neighbors. We’d love to have you join us!
Take what you need, give what you can.
A special thank you to our community partner, Manna Food Center, who donated the pantry.
