Opportunity to drive our 18’ Mobile Market Truck, filled with produce, to various locations in Arlington. The truck is designed with our logo and has side doors that lift up to display the produce that has been prepacked from our warehouse. The Program started in February 2023. We are primarily serving the "food deserts" of Arlington in the southeast part of the city. This is an area where there are fewer grocery stores.

Volunteer Requirements: current driver's license and car insurance.
No Commercial Driver’s license is needed.

We offer you an opportunity to practice driving the truck if you are interested. Jessica, Program Coordinator of the market truck, always rides with the driver to every site we visit.

Mission Statement

Our MISSION is to lead and engage our community in the fight against hunger and poverty. ​

Description

As the largest food pantry in Arlington, Texas, we provide supplemental groceries to our neighbors facing food insecurity through various programs such as a drive-through mobile food market on weekday mornings, Monday-Friday and grocery delivery to seniors and those with mobility issues.

Our VISION is to meet the immediate, basic needs of those in our community, partner with other community agencies & organizations to advance our mission and proactively seek new resources and tools to serve those in need.

Our CODE OF PRACTICE will:

  • Instill a sense of dignity in each client, visitor, volunteer and staff person when entering and leaving our facility.

  • Focus on the needs of the clients and what we can do to improve their circumstances.

  • Serve clients with integrity and refrain from judgment of their individual situation.

  • Embrace, value, and champion diversity of all clients, volunteers and staff persons.
