Get Involved

The Food Pantry can always benefit from more volunteers.

There are opportunities to serve by delivering food to the food pantry and by helping withdistribution.

Because the Food Pantry operates on funds from Lakeview’s Benevolence Fund, donations to the Benevolence Fund earmarked for the Food Pantry are vital. We also welcome direct donations (e.g. cereal, macaroni and cheese, peanut butter, soup).

If you are interested in finding out how you can serve in this ministry, please email a member of the Leadership Team.
