Volunteer Drivers Needed!

The People's Pantry Food Recovery Society is looking for reliable volunteer drivers to help rescue food from local retailers and deliver it to our pantry in Port Moody.

By volunteering just a few hours a week, you'll help reduce food waste and ensure good food reaches individuals and families in our community.

We're looking for volunteers who:
✔ Have a valid driver's licence and access to a vehicle
✔ Can lift and transport food safely
✔ Are dependable and enjoy giving back to the community

Interested in joining our team? We'd love to hear from you! Email us at [email protected] for more information.

Together, we can rescue food, reduce waste, and support our neighbours in need.

This week we received just over 2800 yoghurt drinks from Costco in Port Coquitlam!
These were donated because they had damage to their cardboard packaging and could not be sold. The drinks themselves are completely fine and have been distributed to families in the TriCities.
This donation made our day, thank you Costco in Port Coquitlam!

Each hamper we make is full of fresh produce, baked goods and protein. With each hamper, we help reduce food insecurity and keep good food out of the landfill.

Thank you, all of you.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms, grandmothers, caregivers, chosen family members, and nurturing figures in our community. 💐

Today, we recognize the many ways care is shown every day — through meals shared, rides given, kind words offered, worries carried, and support provided even during difficult times.

At The People’s Pantry, we are continually inspired by the strength, generosity, and resilience of so many women and caregivers in our community, including our volunteers, supporters, and the families we serve.

Wishing everyone a day filled with care, appreciation, and connection. ❤️
