Volunteer Spotlight

Events Team

Behind every successful fundraiser and every holiday basket prepared, there is a dedicated team that plans, coordinates, and executes it all. The countless hours that are required to make these events run smoothly is truly inspiring!

Inventory Team

Keeping our inventory up-to-date is a lot of work! We are so thankful to have this team of volunteers who faithfully show up every week to inventory all food items (perishable and non-perishable) in the pantry. They sort, re-stock, organize and prepare inventory reports for ordering. Their dedication and hard work makes it easier for other volunteers to pick and pack food orders. We’re truly grateful to Linda W., Linda F., John & Mark!

Backpack Teams

The school backpack program is a vital lifeline for children facing food insecurity in the Guilderland community. This massive effort is powered entirely by dedicated volunteers who shop, pack and deliver food weekly to the schools. A heartfelt “Thank you!” to these devoted volunteers.

Barb Catlin - Volunteer

Barb served in the pantry for 25 years! She always had a smile, a kind word and gave families encouragement and hope. Barb helped with holiday meals, special events, packing bags for families and any other task that needed to be done. She is the true spirit of 'neighbors helping neighbors'. Best of luck in your retirement, Barb!

BSNB Team

This team of volunteers from the Ballston Spa National Bank (BSNB) recently donated their time to the Guilderland Food Pantry. This fun and energetic group helped sort and stock a very large food donation. They also sorted and bagged donated returnable bottles and cans that filled 40 CLYNK bags! They were a tremendous help and we thank them for their service to our community!
