At Life Solutions of Hamlin Food Pantry, we source food from many sources; Foodlink, Wegman's, Aldi's and Tops Markets.  We are looking for volunteers to pick up food from Tops Market in Hamlin, NY, deliver it to the Pantry, weigh & put it away.  This would be a once a month opportunity for approximately 2 hours at a time.   Must be able to lift 50 lbs, provide your own transportation, prompt and reliable.  

The Pediatric Hospitality Cart at East River Road Clinic is a volunteer-supported program designed to provide healthy, nutritious snack bags to pediatric patients and their families during medical appointments. Serving the Departmental and Behavioral Pediatrics Unit, Pediatric Behavioral Health and Wellness Unit, and Pediatric Neurology Unit, the cart offers a simple but meaningful gesture of comfort for families navigating often lengthy and challenging visits.

Many families travel significant distances—often 30 miles or more—for care. Providing a ready-to-go snack bag helps ease that burden, ensuring children have access to nutritious food and offering caregivers one less thing to worry about during their visit.

This initiative builds on the success of the AC6 Pediatric Hospitality Cart at Strong Memorial Hospital, expanding that model of care and compassion to the East River Road location. With consistent volunteer support, the cart operates Monday through Friday for four hours each day, serving families year-round.

Community involvement is central to the program’s success. Volunteer groups and individuals are invited to sponsor a designated week by donating 500 prepared snack bags (a one-time commitment per week). Each snack bag costs approximately $1.41 to assemble. Sponsors are recognized with signage on the cart during their selected week, with opportunities to support multiple weeks for those interested in a greater level of involvement.

Through this collective effort, the Pediatric Hospitality Cart helps create a more supportive, compassionate healthcare experience—making a difference one snack bag at a time.

Students, faculty and staff are invited to serve as Team Leaders for our Saturday of Service event during Welcome Week 2026.

Incoming students will take part in a variety of service projects (including gardening, cleaning, painting, and more) as a way to get them acclimated to the region and introduce them to the ways they can get involved. Accompany our new students at their sites & help them get better acquainted with their new peers and community!

All who sign up are encouraged to join us for a training/information session on one of the following dates:
