Youth Leadership Opportunities at NHCO

Youth Volunteers Needed this Summer at Food Pantry North Hills Community Outreach needs youth volunteers ages 16 and over, to help at the North Boroughs Food Pantry, located in Allegheny General Hospital, Suburban Campus. Volunteers will push grocery carts to cars and unload the groceries. A large number of the people who use the food pantry are elderly and require assistance. Volunteers are needed the first four Thursdays of every month from 5-8 pm. Interested volunteers should contact Brandi at 412-487-6316, option 1, ext. 3144.

NHCO is always happy to assist local students with their senior projects, Eagle Scout or other community service project, or volunteer requirements. Below is a list of ideas; we also invite your own ideas beyond those listed here. To learn more about our Youth Leadership opportunities, contact Helen Michael 412-487-6316, option 2, 3211.
