I’ve volunteered with MANNA 3 times, with the most recent times at this new location. In November we packaged pies for their Thanksgiving fundraiser and recently during COVID-19 we packaged 1,475 nutritious meals for their clients who have life-threatening illnesses (they must be referred by a health professional if they’re at acute nutritional risk). I really enjoyed meeting the other volunteers—we all had such diverse backgrounds and it was great to see everyone’s desire to help an already vulnerable population during a time like right now.During the quarantine the Philadelphia Parking Authority isnt ticketing so coming into the city and parking was pretty easy. Youll have to sign in at the computers and theres lockers for you to place your belongings (youll set whatever you want the code to be) in the kitchen area. See my photo for their safety rules, and during the quarantine theyre limiting how many people can sign up for a volunteer shift and the hours that you can sign up for shifts (during the day Monday-Friday only). In addition to the aprons and gloves we normally wear, we also all wore face masks and maintained social distancing by standing 6 feet apart.

The nutrition pharmacy for individuals with special needs to be healthy. They provided 3,700 Thanksgiving dinners for families last Thursday. I volunteer two days a week packing meals for people. Always in need of volunteers. Contact office or check out the web site. Give it a try. Youll love the opportunity to help others.

What an A+ organization! MANNA does a ton for Philly and now more broadly Pennsylvania. While I hope I never personally need their services, knowing that they are out there is a big comfort.My relationship with MANNA is as a volunteer. At work, weve paired with MANNA on several occasions. We typically use the volunteer time as part of team building. You can go individually or as a group. They are also flexible with the hours you can commit - from a few hours to a full day. Dont worry, they will put you to work regardless of your skills in the kitchen! Throw in the friendly, volunteer and mission centric staff, and there is no reason not to back this wonderful cause

Ive been volunteering at manna for about a month now, I started with one shift but I found i enjoyed it so much I changed it so I now volunteer 9 hours three days a week, If your going to volunteer here Id recommend it, I work with the kitchen staff and working for them they are very well organized, It may take a little while to adjust but theirs always at least 3 chefs during each shift that may assist you. Manna also has a volunteer lounge and its a nice place to take a break, My recommendations if you want to work in the kitchen is wear conferrable closed toes shoes because when your are working you will be standing.
