Minnie’s Food Pantry

Coach was the best!
she kept our crew motivated, well stocked and had ALL the best Vibes.

After a recent volunteering experience I've concluded that the people at Minnie's love helping the local community and try to have fun while working hard. They tell their story and goals for the day and work together to make a positive impact. They make you feel welcomed and appreciated for your time. Thank you for all you do!

I've been volunteering at Minnie's since 2017. I've seen your growth from a small location to where you are today. I keep coming back, because of your mission and all that you do for the community. Thank you for bringing joy and smiles. We ALL need to be seen and you do that so beautifully.

This was my first time volunteering at Minnie's Food Pantry and I'll definitely be back! I loved hearing about the mission, the community involvement, and the ways to get involved.

This was my first time volunteering with Minnies. Everything was safe and organized. The leaders were great and very helpful. I'll certainly be back

Was a first time volunteer today, and I had the best experience. Loved to hear the mission and origin of Minnie’s food pantry. Plus there were Lots of positive vibes, friendly smiles and it was well organized.
We will definitely be back to help.

This place is amazing. It was a privilege to get to volunteer my time at such an outstanding establishment. This place is the real deal and Cheryl should be proud of what she has created!

Today October 11, 2024 I experienced a feeling I’ve only felt a couple of times before. The first time was at the birth of my first child. Today was as a volunteer at Minnie’s Food Pantry. The words “Awesome and Remarkable ” may come close to describing the rewarding giving of “SELF” that volunteering at Minnie’s Food ������ Pantry gives to a volunteer. To see the gratitude of the recipients. To see the smiles that are returned as I was loading the food into their vehicles is hard to even describe. Minnie’s Food Pantry is of course feeding the body yet at the end of the day I couldn’t help but believe as a volunteer it was feeding me with a reward also. I left today’s experience totally filled as if I had completed a total feast. Thank you Thank you Thank you.

What a rewarding experience!
Thank you for all you do for the community!
Marisa was a rockstar!

My heart is full having volunteered with the team at Minnie’s. Humbled and proud of the work they do every single day to support the Plano community!

I was part of the Wingstop volunteer group and found my experience with this organization very uplifting, humbling and inspiring. Spending time here volunteering was so meaningful to me. I am looking forward to doing more work in the future!

Had a chance to work with this fine group recently. Really amazing team doing wonderful things for our community!

Our company helped Minnie’s with a huge amount of work today to serve the community. From putting together boxes of food to setting up an event to boost spirits, they’re really doing the most to make a difference!

I volunteer today at Minnie's, the employees are all great people, place is very inviting and makes you feel welcome. We prepared for the food giving upcoming food give way on tomorrow. I was glad to be able to help out in my community, Minnie's Food Panty is a great place to volunteer.

Marissa is amazing and was so full or energy made volunteering so much fun!!

What an incredible opportunity, to volunteer at Minnie's Food Pantry-The excellent and compassionate leadership make this organization a wonderful place that truly cares and helps out our community. We all work together to accomplish the goal of providing hope-as well as food and support-to as many people as we can. One of the most worthwhile experiences in which I have had the pleasure of participating-and will do again!

This was an absolutely amazing volunteer event at Minnie’s Food Pantry. From the founders story to the passion of the 3 ladies who work there and lead everything today. I admire their passion and dedication to help those in need. Also, very organized and serious about providing quality food/items to those in need. Gos bless you all!

The whole experience was life changing. I volunteered with my co workers from UHC. I was visiting for bussiness from Michigan. Everytime I come to Dallas volteeing at Minnies is a must. The compassion from Minnies staff is unmatched.

We had a great time helping out in the boutique and loading boxes for people in need ❤️
It said my photo is too big but I would’ve loved to share!

So well organized, leadership is great to work with, friendly and warm atmosphere with great music. Highly recommend! Had a great time volunteering Saturday morning!

Hi, I was referred to come volunteer by Ms. Shavon! I’m super excited that I found this opportunity, I received and my expected the best! I can’t wait to see you all again :)

I got to volunteer on Saturday. It was a wonderful experience. Minnie’s Pantry is so well run and so clean. I plan to volunteer again.

This was my first time volunteering with Minnie’s Food Pantry. The staff were AMAZING & very professional! Our church Outreach Ministry was welcomed & treated kindly throughout the morning.

The facility is well stocked & extremely clean. I was very impressed with the detail to cleanliness & sanitation!

I will definitely return for future volunteer opportunities! Red Carpet Treatment indeed!

I volunteered by myself without a group and I’m glad I did. I meet some really cool, energetic, and nice people. I helped packed food into bags and it was a very rewarding experience, knowing that the food we packaged was going towards a family or individual that needs it most. I definitely see myself volunteering again. I had a really good time.

everything about volunteering with Minnie’s was top notch - organization, friendliness, passion, direction. Lori, Gipsy, Marisa - the entire team inspired and guided my volunteer group with incredible respect and support. amazing work!

This is my 4th time volunteering with Minnie's Food Pantry and I am so glad that I was introduced to this organization and look forward to serving with them continually! There mission, drive and passion to help the community is refreshing and inspiring! Minnie's Food Pantry does not miss a beat (literally..the music is always on for a good time!)

You can serve outside and have a hands on experience with serving the families, which is amazing! Inside you can stock, pack, prepare and help get the donations ready for families to receive. They even have a boutique! So many areas to help and give. One stop shop :)

I volunteered at Minnie's Food Pantry with my sorority sisters, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. The representatives at Minnie's are so organized and respectful. You can tell their hearts are in their service. The atmosphere was fun, vibrant, and inclusive. I look forward to volunteering again later this week.

So well organized and enthusiastic. Marisa is a rockstar!

We Love Love Love Coming & Serving At Minnie’s! The Amount Of Lives Touched By This Organization Is Unmatched. I’ll Continue To Serve Here For Years To Come!! Santander ������������‼️

I felt great and felt like i helped many people in the area. Everyone was so kind and made us feel at home!

i had soo much fun, met new prople, and involved with the community. i had wonderful experince cant wait to help again soon!!

I volunteered with Minnie’s Food Pantry to give back to the community and was greeted with positive energy the moment i walked through the door. The entire time I was serving everyone was smiling, communicating respectfully, and radiating positivity.

Minnie’s is an amazing nonprofit that not only makes a huge difference in the north Texas area but is a very well-operated organization. We are honored to serve as volunteers at Minnie’s and would encourage anyone who can to support this deserving nonprofit.

Super fun event in helping get food prepared in boxes to give out and fun distributing the food

I volunteered at Minnie’s Food Pantry on 12/14/2023 along with other colleagues from my firm. My goal was to help make someone’s life better but what I never expected was how much my life would be enriched!
I am in awe of the dedication and commitment of the staff at Minnie’s, the amazing service that they provide to the community and the joy in everyone as they enrich lives every day. And all done with one mandate: everyone who receives food, supplies from Minnie’s deserves respect, dignity and love.

The efficiency with which Sheryl and her team manage the pantry and the boutique is spectacular. I can think of several multi-million dollar companies which do not operate with this level of efficiency. As volunteers, we worked hard but with lots of laughter and cooperation. We stocked shelves in the boutique, sorted items in the stock room and were delighted to be part of this amazing operation.

My company volunteered for the 2nd year in a row yesterday, and Minnie's has it going on!! The staff is so fun and energetic and the system is structured and efficient. I believe they served 600 people in less than 4 hours (unverified data that another volunteer thought she heard). Regardless of the number, it was a machine! Music playing, people encouraging each other, lots to do. Minnie's has great passion for what they do and I'm proud to be associated with them!

I connect corporations to nonprofits for volunteer service. Minnie’s is the best run organization. The staff and regular volunteers make volunteering a fun and engaging activation that really allows volunteers to feel connected to the community and collectively make an impact. This organization does as much for the spirit of the volunteers as it does for the guests that are served in the food pantry and the boutique. Cheryl, Erica and their team are so full of love hope and positive energy that it is impossible to leave without feeling grateful and joyous.

Minnie’s Pantry is a tremendously well-run organization, powered by enthusiastic volunteers who are passionate about feeding people facing food insecurity.

I participated with a group of about 30 of my coworkers, as well as groups from other companies. We were greeted warmly, enjoyed coffee while getting pumped up about our day, and then set to work. I worked 4 straight hours in a variety of tasks, and by the end of it everyone was sweaty, exhausted and so thankful for our experience.

I highly recommend anyone to volunteer here - you will come away so much better for it.

It was an amazing experience - super organized, well thought out, great impact. Felt that the few hours that I was there I was able to help make a difference. Marissa and Lauri were fantastic and made the experience that much more magnificent. I love the story of how they go started and the mission. Will definitely return. Very charismatic leaders.

Just wow. Their operation is run on happiness and love by many who are passionate about what they do. Excellent experience and loved how they played music and spread happiness and joy to all!

Had a great time volunteering! I love coming here because I'm needed the entire time I'm here, I feel I'm making a difference, and I know how much a blessing this organization is. If you're looking for a place to volunteer and donate, then look no more! Minnie's Food Pantry is the place for you.

Amazing charity to serve the hungry across multiple states - amazing work!!!

Well organized group to serve meals to locals in Plano, TX.

I’m glad to experience first hand how complex the jobs are to serve a simple meal to the needed.

This was my first experience volunteering at Minnie’s Food Pantry. It was a wonderful experience. Very professional, organized and clear in their orientation and instructions. I can’t wait to volunteer again in the near future!

From the moment I walked in until it was time to go they made me feel welcome.

It was a great experience, one that I definitely enjoyed. The staff is amazing.

Amazing organization!! We love volunteering at Minnie’s!!! This place runs like a well oiled machine.

I've been volunteering at Minnie's for a long time, with my church and with my mom, and I think this charity has gone above and beyond for our community. Everyone is so kind to both the people they serve and the volunteers, and you can tell when you first walk in that they truly care about the cause and put time and effort into helping people.

I had the opportunity to volunteer at this organization. They take great care to meet the needs of the community in a caring environment.

Everyone was great! This was my first time volunteering here but everyone made me feel right at home. Be ready to work, they do not mess around here!

Excellent experience at Minnie's food pantry and really enjoyed helping there with my colleagues! Fantastic team of people who truly care about others and getting people high quality food/products that they may have not been able to easily obtain. Loved all of the staff and look forward to helping again!

This place!! Impossible to leave here without feeling like you’ve made a difference. It is an amazing place with amazing people doing amazing things!! Get there and do yourself and the community some good!!

So organized, amazing energy, and super clean. I’ve volunteered at Minnie’s in the past and they have stepped up their game to make volunteering an amazing experience!

The Staff is friendly, super helpful and knowledgeable. They explain what is needed to keep everyone safe while volunteering. They also let you know about the facility and all they do there and all that is helped through this Food Pantry. It was a wonderful experience.

Really enjoyed volunteering at Minnie’s. . Very organized and efficient!

Our team volunteered at Minnie’s Food Pantry on 4/19/23. We really enjoyed our opportunity to serve and help others. Cheryl Jackson is so inspirational and has a huge heart.

I had a wonderful time. The place is very organized. And the staff kept me motivated.

Hands down the best volunteer experience I’ve ever had!! I can’t wait to go back!

My heart was full the moment I stepped foot in the building. The compassion and joy were palpable. Everything was so well organized. The dignity given to those you serve is such a gift to them. Thank each of you of the impact you make on all of us in your community!
I must say that the gift at the end was a gift from God. Our home has had a shift in finances so we could spend more together time as a family. My goal for the year is to celebrate more so I have been intentional with all I do. My son has loved how I make his ice cream feel like a special treat by choosing a different glass or special spoon. He had begged for a mug to call his own. I haven’t been in a place to provide that just yet. As you passed out the boxes my eyes were filled with tears because it is a reminder that God takes care of us all. Thank you for being His hands and feet! You have forever changed my family.

This was by far the best volunteer experience I have ever had! The staff were great, the other volunteers were great, and the work that Minnie food pantry is doing is one of a kind. I am not from Dallas, I have lived here for just about a year now, and I wish we had a place like this. It’s the charity that keeps on giving! Making everyone volunteers and clients, feel loved, valued, and a sense of belonging! I recommend everyone going at least once although I can promise you that you’d want to go back!

I assisted with the Boutique, and everyone was so nice and welcoming. I felt over-appreciated with all the “Thank You’s” we got. It was a great experience and will be volunteering again!

Minnie’s is a wonderful organization proving for basic needs in our community. It was fun and fulfilling volunteering here.

very busy center, but was well organized and positive.

Mattress Firm participated in a Community Engagement Event today with Minnie’s!!! Erica Simon and her Team are absolutely amazing at serving our communities! If you want to get a “warm fuzzy”, partner with Minnie’s Food Pantry������ Thank you, Minnie’s!!!

Our team had a great time volunteering at Minnie’s. The staff are kind, friendly, and passionate about their work. We will definitely be back!

What a wonderful organization! I’ve volunteered twice. Once putting boxes in cars and once placing food in the boxes. “The assembly line” worked very well. It’s my understanding this was the first time you tried it that way. Very rewarding for me as well. As a retiree I felt like I did something useful with my day.

I am starving right now I want some yogurt, anyone got that oreo yogurt?

This was a great experience for our team, helping pack boxes of food and distributing to the people that came by to pick them up. We will definitely be back to help again.

Our department did a work volunteer event here at Minnie’s for the first time and it was the most amazing experience! The staff was helpful and had wonderful personalities. It was so inspiring to hear the story of how Minnie’s was founded and it just made the volunteer work feel that much more special.

The staff was very fun to work with. They do shading work for the community

We had an excellent experience, packing food, loading cars, and spreading happiness and joy. Minnie’s pantry gave us the opportunity to positively impact the community and spread love. They are organized, professional, friendly and do this from their heart. Minnie’s pantry is phenomenal!

This is my second time volunteering for Minnie’s, and I always walk away with a huge smile on my face. Minnie would be so proud how the staff keeps her vision alive with their commitment, love, and passion to deliver food to the needy in the most respectful manner. Cheers!

I have always been a person of service. I was excited to have the opportunity to help Minnie’s Food Pantry through MOM Crew. This was my third time volunteering and each time brings me great joy. Minnie’s does an amazing job of providing for the community and makes its volunteers feel at home. I will be volunteering again.

Volunteered and has a great time!! The staff was amazing and we were able to help many people.

Great experience with co workers! Always good to take time out of office and give back to our community!

The USI team had a great experience volunteering with Minnie's. Minnie's was organized, gave clear instructions, had plenty for us to do and catered to everyone's "volunteering style" - whether that was directly serving, sorting, moving around the warehouse or working in the re-sale shop. They shared stats on the impact we had that day, which helped us realize how much we helped the community that day and how much more we can do. Thanks Minnie's we will be back!

It’s a true pleasure to volunteer & support Minnie’s Pantry, they are a wonderful organization. Today, my teammates and I built 600 food boxes - knowing we will have assisted 600 local families put food on the table is fantastic. This organization is very clean, professional and are an exceptional community organization. High Five to Minnie & Team!!!

I am so happy to be able to give time at Minnie’s pantry . Minnie’s pantry has friendly staff . They give clear instructions to the volunteers and make us feel comfortable.. They are doing a lot of good work helping communities in need . Please help them reach more families

serving at MFP is life changing! I have been serving at Minnie's for 14 years!

This is the most fun rewarding experiance. We have a blast every service.

great experience. volunteered from Bank of America

I love Minnie's. There is always fun music and everyone is always smiling. Definitely my favorite place to be!!! :)))))

I love Minnies! They treat all their volunteers soooo good. This is like serving the community as one big family! Everyone is welcomed and appreciated.

This is literally my favorite place to be! Everyone treats each other like family and it is so fun to spend time doing service and i could go on and on.

Great place! Everyone is always in a awesome mood and so helpful

My team and I went today and we were from Chase Bank. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to give back and volunteer. We definitely will be back. Thanks Marisa and team for being awesome!

I volunteered with my company at Minnie's Food Pantry. It was so much fun and so organized. You could really tell that the employees there took exceptional care to ensure boxes given to recipients were packed neatly, with fresh products. The employees stressed to pack these boxes like you would for your own family. They really care about the recipients of the food and want to ensure they feel respected. The resale shop was also wonderful. Very clean and neat with some very nice stuff.

Minnie's Food Pantry is a great way to give back to the community. We at State Farm felt the love and care you share with all of your clients. Minnie's Food Pantry is very well organized and clean. Volunteering there was such a joy for our whole team that came out.

I have served as a volunteer at Minnie's Food Pantry since 2015. Minnie's provides the community with one of the basic needs in life and it is so very important. To be a part of their mission is so fulfilling. The continued participation of my fellow Keller Williams Allen agents shows that the experience volunteering at Minnie's touches the hearts of so many. We will be back again soon!

This place is special. They do everything they can to have every visitor smiling and waving when they leave!

I was in desperate need this month a came to Minnie's food pantry for the first time. It was a great blessing. I have read some negative reviews on here and all I can say is that those people were looking for a handout of perfection and not a hand up out of desperation. Sometimes, you are in the system for too long. I am disabled and my husband is my care taker and works so the money does not go far enough paying bills, rent, buying groceries, etc. If you want steaks all of the time get a grant and a better job. I have 2 masters and disabled so I am not able to work with special needs children with emotional disabilities or I would be working. Stop tearing down those trying to help you.

Minnie's is a great organization, always looking for more ways to help serve the community.
I am excited to be able to help as a volunteer.

I have been volunteering for over 5 years and am so proud of this family I get to be a part of. Our clients are our family, and we are happy to see everyone who comes, whether for service or to volunteer! This is the way all food pantries should be run!

I interned with Minnie's over the summer, and it was amazing. All the people are amazing, and they do such good things for every guest. I love Minnie's, and I know everyone that comes by does, too.

This place is very friendly and is a lot of fun. They make you work hard while having fun. I would definitely come back to volunteer again.

Super friendly staff and lots of work to be done while you are here. Music is playing which makes time fly while you're busy working.

It is my first time here and it was very easy to help out.

Minnie's Food Pantry has a really enthusiastic team of people that is really committed to their wonderful cause! I really enjoyed volunteering here!

I had a great time working with Minnie's food pantry. Everyone was super enthusiastic, helpful and fun-loving. I had a great overall experience!

Really positive volunteering environment! Easy to tell this place is well funded and actually care about public service. All the coordinators know how to motivate the volunteers and give meaning to helping the less fortunate.

I've been coming o Minnie's for years, with both my church youth group and my HOSA chapter from The University of Texas at Dallas and every time it is such a wonderful experience! They have the best intentions, the staff is friendly and fast, and it's nice knowing you can help make a difference.

Minnie's is a Plano institution. It is such a joyful place and the staff are truly committed to serving locals in need. Volunteering doesn't feel like work here, it feels like helping your family.

This is my first time volunteering with Minnie's Food Panty and the staff is amazing! They are enthusiastic and have let us know how important our work is today. I can't wait to come help again!

Awesome run place, the team of volunteers really care.

I will never forget Minnie's! The team at this food pantry is truly inspiring. Everyone is dedicated, hardworking, and passionate. They set the standard for happyness in the workplace. Meticulously sourcing quality food products and beautiful fresh produce. They want people in need to be nourished with love and care, not just food. Full disclosure from a nosy Chef, cleanliness and refrigeration is really impressive! I will send my future kitchen rock stars there for an example on how my kitchen should be ran. I'm so thankful for the opportunity to work with the lion hearts at Minnie's! Unforgettable!

Minnie's is a very special place because you are filled with experiences and continuous learning, the most interesting thing is that in addition to being a place it is a feeling.

Eternally grateful to this family and thank God to be part of it

It has been a great help and opportunity for my family and for me working for Minnie's
and a wonderful blessing

love Minnie's!!! ^u^

I started working at Mini's Food Pantry 08/3/2020. It's been a very good experience working here and i love it. Everybody is nice, teamwork is a great deal here, and the best of it all the founder is so down to earth. She's always greeting us with a smile on her face, and always appreciating what we do and thanking us for choosing to help at Mini's. I love working here, i love the staffs and it's fulfilling helping to serve others.

Mini's food pantry is a place to be, i always look forward to going there.

I love volunteering at Minnie's Food Pantry. It is a wonderful experience to help feed the community. Minnie's is the most generous pantry that I know of. They give such a variety of nutritious food. The staff is wonderful and very caring. This is the best experience in my lifetime.

Minnie's Food Pantry has changed my life for the better and will always hold such a special place in my heart. I am blessed to be able to volunteer here and serve our community. The staff has truly made me feel like I am a part of the Minnie's family. One thing I have loved about Minnie's since the first day I came in to the building, is the incredible and amazing positive energy that is in this place! Everyone welcomes you with a smile, a pep talk, we turn the music up loud, dance,sing and we HAVE SO MUCH FUN while we work. I truly look forward to coming here every time I work.

Es un lugar de bendicion, siento que mientras ayudo a ayudar a otros me ayudan a mi! es hermoso formar parte de esto, pues tambien se siente la alegria de todo el que forma parte de este equipo por hacer lo que hacen. Dios nos siga bendiciendfo con MInnies!

Minnie's has changed my life. They have greatly blessed my family and me beyond measure. The love that Minnie's and the staff share is priceless. "One team, one dream, one goal".

Ha sido grandioso, me encanta ser parte de esta gran familia. Saber que muchas personas pueden recibir alimentos y que cada vez que sirvan su comida yo he sido parte de eso. Dios bendiga esta empresa y multiplique sus dones al ciento por uno.

I have never met a group of people so kind and generous as the people at Minnie's food pantry. Every single one of their staff have a genuine willingness to serve and love others. This can be seen in all the work they do for our community. They are not only providing food for those who need it, they make sure that there is no shame that comes along with it. They focus on making every one of their guests feel like royalty. I will continue to come back to Minnie's food pantry to serve and support their cause.

Minnie's is such a pleasure to volunteer at! The love and the kindness that is shown here is truly authentic and the kindness here is real! The clients that come to Minnie's know that they will receive the best service and will be treated with the utmost respect. Minnie's is organized, clean, safe, and the staff is well knowledged in what they are doing and communicate it effectively. I'm proud for the past 5 years to be a volunteer here at Minnie's!

I am truly blessed to have been introduced to Minnie's. I have been working here since March 2020, and it has been an eye opening experience. To be able to help out others in need warms my heart. I look forward to coming into work every morning because of the people here. Such a warm welcoming and so many laughs daily with the staff. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. If you cant feed 100 people, feed just one.

I have been working at Minnie's Food Pantry for a few months now and I am really happy to be a part of this wonderful organization. The people and environment are friendly, which makes it easy and fun to work at. I highly recommend coming here if you are in need of their services, or if you simply want to give back to the community!

Minnies Food Pantry has changed my life! Not only is it an awesome place to work but a place full of love, laughter and great friendships. It is a place where we all work as a team to help and serve our community. Our goal here at Minnie's is to make sure everyone feels loved and no one walks away hungry!

I was introduced to Minnie's through a sister of mine and I am SO grateful that I was! Becoming a Volunteer at Minnie's has been absolutely life changing. I'm blessed every morning going into work with such an amazing organization! It warms my heart to work with amazing people that truly have extraordinary passion for serving our community. The leaders at Minnie's are always walking in the example of excellence that our guests deserve as they literally walk the red carpet to be served. Thank you Minnie's for allowing me to serve along with you and be apart of making the difference we do in our community!

I have been volunteering at Minnie's since March. Since my first day I wanted to come back and be a part of the Minnie's team. The entire Minnie's staff makes you feel welcomed and they are always so cheerful and enthusiastic. I have enjoyed being a part of a team that is truly making a difference in the community. Most of the time I am outside checking in guest and you can see Minnie's Food Pantry is impacting so many people because they tell me everyday that they are glad Minnie's is helping serving them. We have also gone to schools to serve families in Plano ISD and McKinney ISD. It is amazing to see that Minnie's is partnering with others in order to help those who are struggling during this pandemic. Also, you can see that Cheryl and her executive team are doing their best in order to make a difference.

I am fortunate to have worked for Minnies Food Pantry and now turned Volunteer. The environment was friendly, organized, and sanitation techniques were on point. Every single person wore a mask and that made me proud. I saw nothing but hard work and dedication to feeding the community. I very much look forward to volunteering for Minnies in the future.

I have had the privilege to work as a volunteer for 3 weeks or so at the facility and be part of the process involved in putting together the food boxes in thousands and providing them to the local community and at schools. I am so proud of and amazed how everyday so many volunteers come and pitch in and learn. I am also impressed with the owner and the staff and how they run this non profit organization. I am really in love with this facility and look forward to going there every morning. I salute the owner and the staff for carrying out this monumental work for past 12 years. I wish them all the success and ask the community leaders and organizations to give the donations in cash or goods. It will go long ways.

As a first-time volunteer, I was impressed with the positive and inclusive environment. The enthusiasm and joy that everybody brought to the work was Infectious and Inspiring. Can’t wait to go back to be a part of this team!!

My dad had stroke and I had to take care of him at home for a year Minnie's allowed me to keep up until he died one year later then I had my own health issues that limited my work and they have continued to help I love the fellowship and attitude toward the clients and the new boutique offers great prices on things that in turn helps the pantry

We had a wonderful time volunteering with Minne's. Everyone was so nice and friendly. They worked us hard and I sleep good but I will be back!

I have observed the care and love Minnies Food Pantry gives to each of their clients. They welcome each person with open arms. It is important at Minnies Food Pantry that each client receives quality products and they make that happen. I enjoyed my time volunteering.

What an amazing experience for volunteers and clients! Minnie's helps to feed those in need and provides a hand up with dignity, love and grace.

Minnie's Food Pantry is a top notch organization! Every family is treated with honor, respect and love. The facility is neat and clean and the operation runs like a well oiled machine. My experience as a volunteer was fantastic and I'm so excited to be helping this organization going forward.

A well oiled machine that values the humanity in every individual they serve.

As an occasional volunteer, I've been incredibly impressed with the passion and commitment of the volunteers who run Minnie's. The organization provides needed food to hundreds of families in the Plano area every week. Minnie's always stresses creating a respectful and welcoming environment for their clients and volunteers.

Minnie's is a great place to volunteer. Everyone there is friendly and all about feeding the people and educating them on living better.

What a wonderful volunteer experience. There are a few paid staff members, and they are so organized, with an attitude of 'we can make it happen'. They really do put the red carpet out; not just a statement; they really have a red carpet, and they do their best to make each client feel valued, validated, and welcomed.
As a volunteer I am so rewarded! Got a few hours? Spend them wisely, pay it forward, and increase your karma. Basically just do something good!!!

Minnie's Food Pantry was the best volunteer experience I have ever had! They are well organized, and the facility is very clean. The people are super friendly , and they provide excellent service to those in need. If you or your organization are looking for a great place to donate your time and resources please go to Minnie's Food Pantry!

I love how this organization respects each person/family that walks through the doors. Every on staff volunteer is excited about helping from the beginning of their shift to the end and the recipients enjoy the love.

I love Minnie’s!!! We have been volunteering here for years and just love this organization! Everyone is so nice and they are so great to the people who are in need. Everyone is treated like a VIP and the presentation of the food is always amazing! The best non-profit!

Minnies is the very best place to volunteer and make a difference! They are feeding those in need, the highest honor of all!

I have volunteered for different organizations and have been collaborating with Minnie’s Pantry for over4 years. Minnies is my favorite!! Why? Because Minnie’s is a place like no other, where the guests receive a red carpet treatment. By this I mean they do walk on a red carpet but most importantly they are treated with respect, love, care and joy, regardless of their condition. Here you have the opportunity of interacting directly with the guests and receiving from them smiles and hugs of gratitude, and this can make your day.

I volunteered here and the program is very efficient and they do not waste anything. Please consider volunteering or donating to this awesome cause!

I spent a morning volunteering with unloading and sorting boxes of food. It was such a wonderful experience and a lot of hard work but so worth it. The staff at Minnie's food pantry are such kind and wonderful givers. I had a chance to see them working with recipients and again they were wonderful with them. They are definitely a charity worth giving time and/or donations to.

This was my second time to volunteer at Minnie's and I plan to volunteer many more times! It is always a very positive experience. The atmosphere there is very positive and upbeat, and the volunteers that organize and guide the rest of us are always very personable and pleasant. It is also a great way to get to know some coworkers better. I love it!

I have volunteered as a retiree at Minnie's food pantry almost every week for a year and a 1/2. I have worked in all areas but I love Being a cart runner. They are so organized
in helping the clients that are coming in to pick up food. I Love being able to interact with the clients and give them hugs as I load their food in their vehicle. Will continue to volunteer as long as I am physically able. I also love how they do not discriminate based on zip codes. People come as far away as 40 miles to pick up food monthly from Minnie's food pantry. I love all the people that work here and the regular volunteers.

Minnie's takes the time to make sure their families get only good quality meal assistance and that they feel cared about as well! They also coordinate educational opportunities for their both their recipients AND the community they are a part of! Definitely not the paltry outreach food pantry that my family relied on when I was a child!

I enjoyed volunteering February 3 and look forward to coming back. I found the facility very organized, and the supervisor, Ms. Kneeland, very friendly and encouraging. Keep up the good work!

it is an awesome challenge what a non profit org such as Minnies Food Pantry has taken into their mission. I loved the opportunity to meet them and to feel there is a lot of passion behind this team. Please support their cause, because many families in need will appreciate the opportunity of having food for their loved ones through the efforts of this marvelous idea. If you are reading this, you are already a blessed person, share it with others that still dont see!

I volunteer at Minnie's Food Pantry 2 or 3 times each week and it is one of the most rewarding experiences I look forward to. The mission of Minnie's and the environment are heartwarming. Seeing the clients come in and how they are treated with such love and respect by all of the staff and volunteers really shows you the genuine caring spirit of everyone at Minnie's. I have volunteered at many agencies and locations over my life and rate my experience at Minnie's right at the top.

I worked with the Knights of Columbus for the first time on Wednesday morning, January 8th. All the volunteers were ready to go and eager to help. Minnie's staff were fun, helpful, and full of energy. If you had a question on what to do, they were happy to help and ensure you got your questions answered. It was a lot of fun and very fulfilling to help serve groceries to over 150 needy families!

Minnie’s Food Pantry Inc. is the best nonprofit that I have ever volunteered at. The staff that works there is so kind and open minded. The door at Minnie’s is always open to help anyone in need. When I volunteer with the pantry, I am always in the WOW center. The WOW center houses all the canned goods, drinks, cereal, vegetables, fruits, bread, snacks, and frozen meat. I truly enjoy sorting food items and making boxes for distribution in the WOW center. I have been volunteering with Minnie’s Food Pantry since I was a junior in high school. I am now a junior in college. I will continue to serve and assist at this great nonprofit!

It is a real joy to be a volunteer at Minnie's Pantry. The experience is like none other. Every client is treated with the utmost respect, love, and care. From the moment they walk our "Red Carpet" they are greeted with a smile and served expeditiously with compassion and care. I love being a part of Minnie's Pantry.

friendly staff, great new location, very helpful and kind

What a wonderful day. Everything was so organized and it is so rewarding to see the happy faces of the customers.

Amazing! Fantastic service and the people here are amazing!

It has been my pleasure to be a volunteer at Minnie's Food Pantry over the last nine years. During this time I have observed the difference the pantry has made in the lives of the community, combating hunger.

What an amazing organization! This place runs like a well- oiled machine... serving people food, love, and dignity! My son and I love to volunteer here!

Its a wonderful place to come to help the people who are in need to food. I can't thank all the people who come in and help us enough

Minnies stands out from any other place I've volunteered at through the sheer power of the love that flows through everything, from the staff to the carts of food put together so well. As soon as you walk through the door there is music playing and a bright red carpet rolled out! The warmth makes it clear that everyone really is a family.

Everytime I come in everyone is so friendly and helpful, its extremely different than any other place that I've gone

this help me in a time when it was least expected. I remember Minnie's after I lost my job and my budget was limited. I was thankful for the service and will be forever grateful.

This is a great place, awesome experience, very friendly staff. They are very well structured and makes the volunteer job very seamless. Would love to be part of the Minnie family, best in town !

I've been coming to minnies for 6 years and never had a bad experience everyone is really nice and courteous and everyone is cheery. They are all in a good mood.

its was a blessing and timely the people were good and helpful

Hospitality, Smiles, Friendliness, & whole atmosphere is JUST GREAT!!!!!

the thing i love the most is that they treat me with respect and make u feel the love and like a person

The people are always so nice. Tanya at the desk is great!!! I always feel so welcome there.

Customer service and the connection between the clients and the staff is amazing. And there is a wonderful selection of food.

It has been a wonderful experience, the staff is very helpful. It is a wonderful place for the community.

Minnie's is a beautiful place inside and out. When I first walked through these doors, I was in tears and they welcomed me in. Cheryl has been there for me and I once was a volunteer there. As a senior citizen it is a resource I count on.

They help me out when I need them. I am on a fixed income and when I finish paying my bills I am left with no money. This gets me through the month. I don't need them every month but it is good to know that when I do need them they are here

The people are so nice and friendly, They make you feel right at home.

Minnie's Food Pantry is one of the best places ever to volunteer. Dr. Cheryl Jackson and her Team are some of the most kindest and humble people whom I have ever met in my life. Minnie's is a non-profit organization that offers compassion, love, and kindness to those whose hearts are broken from hunger. They REALLY do care about each person who walks through their front door
...and always strive to provide world-class service to each client via the "red carpet". Clients initially arrive with fear and sadness in Minnie's but always leave with smiles and lifted spirits after they are comforted by each of the caring volunteers. Each client receives a box of food that contains canned vegetables, rice, beans, etc. and also receives juice, milk, fresh fruits, veggies, and meat too. They also provide bread and desserts too. I recommend Minnie's food pantry to anyone in need of emergency groceries. If you can't feed a hundred hungry people, then feed just one.

Volunteered here from Bank of America and to see how much food Minnie's takes in and give back to the families in need, truly made my heart happy! With all the negatives in the world now, its great to see people in the community doing things to help. I plan on volunteering here more!

FedEx Cares- our team enjoyed helping the team at Minnies do ALL that was needed while we were there.
We actually arrived on a day they were serving there 1 Million family. Minnies made it an exciting celebration! the Client served was elated!
Minnies Food Pantry has created a wonderful caring, giving atmosphere- It was easy to see the Blessings that putting in some work was truly helpful for People in need.
Please if your going to Volunteer anywhere- go check out Minnies!

I volunteered to help at Minnies Pantry and it was the most eye opening rewarding experience I have ever had. Minnies Pantry not only gives food (a good variety of food) to thousands of people in need. The food is inspected before being given out. Not even a can that has a dent on it - It was amazing!!
I had the honor to assisting at a Sr. living facility. It was great to bring food to the elderly and bring a smile to there face!
Minnies - What you are doing for the community is so wonderful! You have truly blessed ever person you come in contact with! I will be honored to volunteer again. I will also be bring items to you in the future!!

My first introduction to Minnie's Food Pantry was through collaboration between a Business Resource Group at my employer Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas and Minnie's. One of the first things that I noticed about Minnie's was the positive energy that I felt when I was there. The staff had extremely positive attitudes and energy when they talked about their work as well as when they worked with or trained volunteers. The volunteers fed off the energy from the staff and it created a virtuous circle in terms of positive energy. I have been very fortunate to have an opportunity to volunteer with Minnie's several times since 2017. My most recent volunteer event was Friday October 5, 2018 and while Minnie's has expanded the scope of their work in the community they still exhibit the same positive energy in all that they do. It has been a pleasure every time I have volunteered at Minnie's.

I volunteered as part of a work event and loved it! Everyone at Minnie's was extremely professional, organized and extremely appreciative! They do great work helping our friends and neighbors in need - in a variety of ways. It was extremely eye-opening and rewarding! Kudos to Minnie's for all they do!

It wasn't just volunteering....It was an experience! The staff is very friendly and you can feel how passionate they are about Minnies. Every department is organized; from the storage room, the main lobby to the boutique store. If I lived in TX I would be a regular volunteer. This is a great place for companies to have their colleagues volunteer or even families to support the local community. Minnies definitely makes a difference.

This was an amazing experience. It's humbling to see the number of people who cannot afford meals for their families. I found myself hugging and talking to everyone I could. I saw people load food in suitcases, because it was easier to transport via the city bus. And everyone was so very thankful and nice to all of us volunteering that day. If you ever have a chance to donate a few hours of your time, this is definitely the place to volunteer. My whole family is going back to help with Thanksgiving. We all appreciate Minnie's Food Pantry. Thank you all for allowing me to experience all the good you do for our community and surrounding counties.

Volunteering at Minnies Food Pantry was an experience of a lifetime. To see all those smiling faces after receiving so much food was so fulfilling. Minnies Food Pantry goes above and beyond for the community. I would definitely give my time again to such a wonderful cause.

What a wonderful experience volunteering for Minnies Food Pantry. The staff is very dedicated to what they do and are very committed to the experience everyone has when they walk through the doors. From those in need of their services to the volunteers that come in everyone is impacted in a positive way. If you have not volunteered at Minnie's you don't know what you are missing. It would be a wonderful thing to show your kids as well as having the tremendous experience of helping those in your community.

I volunteered with a group from work and this was so much fun! Minnie's is a well oiled machine and I was very impressed with their dedication to providing for the community. I look forward to volunteering there again.

Great environment, helping people be seen in an affluent community who need help. Wonderful staff who truly care and are working hard to make a difference.

Awesome experience and great staff! Would love to volunteer again

We were looking for a team building event for our team of 50. Oh man, we hit the jackpot with Minnie’s. To seenthe need within our own community, to see the faces of the people we helped, it was overwhelming to say the least. Minnie’s has given me a new perspective on the things most of us take for granted. Hunger within our own community. Our post meeting survey had a 100% request to volunteer at Minnie’s again, next year. My entire team found it rewarding. Knowing that Minnie’s is here, fighting the good fight everyday, with no help from the government, helps restore my faith in humanity.

I recently volunteered with Minnies and was impressed with the level of care they have regarding the items they provide to their clients. I worked in the second-hand store readying items for sale and was truly impressed with the standards they have about the products they offer for sale.

I love that they fresh produce that does not met their standards for human consumption is used by local farmers to feed livestock. They seem to waste very little!

A great organization that I hope to have a continuing relationship with!

I had volunteer at Minnie's through my job. I had never heard of Minnie's before. This was a wonderful experience all of the work that Minnie's does for the community is amazing. We work in the resale shop some because it was after an event they had the night before and we love it. Plan on becoming a regular volunteer outside of work, and since my son had to do volunteer work before college this is where we plan on doing a lot of it.

I have volunteered at a lot of food pantries over the years and have never experienced the organization that is Minnie's. Their attention to detail and commitment to providing their customers with a dignified experience is amazing. I plan to volunteer here in the future.

Our company along with some affiliates spent the morning at Minnie's Food Pantry. The staff and organization was amazing! What a great experience : )

Volunteering at Minnies Food Pantry was a great experience. You can see the passion it everyone's face as they are doing so much good for the community. It is so nice to be able to interact with the people that you are helping through volunteering and donating at Minnies.

This is a great charity that does wonderful work for this community. It was a privilege to serve with them. We will be back to seve again!!!!

I volunteered with my company and the experience was humbling and amazing. All the volunteers I worked with that day, came from different companies. We came on the same mission, to do what we can with what we have, which is our time. Lynnette and her team were so welcoming and now I have decided to go back whenever they need me. A lot of people are blessed by what Minnie has done and keep on doing. Minnie's Food Pantry is doing what God ask of us to do, that is to help one another. This place is a blessing in many ways. Highfive Minnie's Food Pantry!

Great Staff very friendly and motivating! Such a Wonderful Organization for the community!

Volunteering at Minnie’s was a rewarding experience. The day I was there we helped 73 families by providing 3650 meals. Everything was well organized, and everyone was treated with care. I will definitely be volunteering again.

It was such a wonderful experience to volunteer and to be part of a wonderful organization, the detail, the kindness, selfless way people at Minnies work together to give their best to the community. Thank you Minnies for everything you do on helping others.

Volunteering at Minnie's Food Pantry was a 100% positive experience. There were so many volunteers and staff busily working to make life better for those less fortunate. Volunteers represent all ages, races, and ethnic groups as do the clients. Such of feeling of community! Minnie's runs like a well-oiled machine, yet every client was treated with individual respect . I saw personal attention being paid to everyone who was served. I smiled all the rest of the day after volunteering, and woke up with a smile on my face the next morning remembering the Minnie experience. What an "upper"! I can hardly wait to go back!

Learned a lot about Minnies pantry. It was an awesome experience! I will return soon!

I volunteered with my college aged son and I was very impressed with Minnies Food Pantry. I had heard of it but had never volunteered. They were very organized and has us to work quickly. It worked like a well oiled machine. What a wonderful offering they provide the community.

We had a great time and were really impressed about all that Minnies Food Pantry does for the community. We will definitely be back to help out and support this wonderful charity!

The generosity shown at Minnie’s is incomparable to anything I’ve been apart of.My time there makes me proud to have met such great people.

Very organized and everyone is helpful, as a volunteer.
Looking forward to open opportunites to use my open time, while finding a full time job.
Great organization. Amazed at all the contributions that are received.

This is one organization that truly gives up to people. From the people who actually work there to all the volunteers, they make this experience so much fun. This is without a doubt the most welcoming group of people I have ever met. I so look forward to my days at Minnies!

It was amazing! Everything was so thought out and organized. No time was wasted. I feel like I made an important contribution and loved everything about the experience. Lynette and all of the employees were thoughtful and caring.

Wow- it was truly an honor to serve with Minnies last week. I was blown away by their efficiency, humbleness, and authentic kindness. As soon as you walk through the door, a volunteer greets you with the biggest smile and truly makes you feel welcomed and a part of their mission! Another thing that I loved is that at the end of your service, they share the impact you made and how important your time spent is. I will definitely be back to serve!

Minnie's Food Pantry is a nonprofit organization that helps people that can’t afford food. It was founded on April 1,2008, by Dr. Cheryl Jackson. When I walked in the the first thing I saw was the red carpet leading us to the front desk. I wondered why there is a red carpet in a food pantry. Later during the orientation I learned that the red carpet was there so that the people that walk in there feel special. At first I thought the name Minnie was the founder's name. Minnie was Cheryl’s mother’s name. When her father died she wanted the world to know her name, so she started Minnie’s Food Pantry. During Cheryl’s life she had a hard time providing food for her family. She applied for food stamps but had a little too much money. She found a job that helped get enough money to do what she needed to do. Minnie’s Food Pantry receives no government support and is 100% community funded. They have been featured on: The Food Network’s documentary, Hunger Hits Home, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Good Morning America, Entertainment Tonight, The Talk and The Steve Harvey Show, amongst others.
I had a good time volunteering there. Since I wasn't older than 13 I couldn't do the things the older people were doing. Instead I decorated paper bags for children my age and younger, who don’t have that much food. On the bags we wrote bible verses, prayers, “Have a Great Day!”, and we drew many things. After that we filled the bags with milk, granola bars, fruit snacks, and crackers. Then we filled “Day Labor Bags.” Day Labor Bags are bags with premade food in them. They are for people who work but don’t get paid. In them we put water, juice, mac & cheese, canned sausages, crackers, granola bars, and fruit snacks. I wondered how they were going to eat the mac & cheese. Then they told me the people can just walk up to the nearest 7 Eleven to get hot water. Then we cleaned the whole place by sweeping the floors, picking up trash, mopping the floors, wiping the tables and the chairs, and rearranging everything to make the place look nice.
This was a very nice opportunity. When I was there, there were people who volunteer there every week! This was my first time volunteering there but probably not my last time. It made me realize how lucky I am to have food on my table everyday. These people they are serving don’t have anything. I think it’s nice for people to spend their time helping the least fortunate. The work of mercy I chose was feed the hungry. I chose this because I wanted to help those who are less fortunate then I am. I didn’t see any hungry people when I was there, but some of the other volunteer’s did. I had a really nice time there, and everybody was so nice. Everyone there had such a big heart, devoting their time for those in need. On Saturday mornings I spend my time on my phone this time I actually did something to help people. I really do recommend volunteering at Minnie’s Food Pantry.

CalTech volunteered at Minnies Food Panty this week and it was an awesome experience! It was so organized it made us want to come back! We are trying to figure out when we can come back and do it again! Lynette and her whole team were great leaders and have done an outstanding job streamling their process! I would encourage anyone who wants to give back to the community to contact Minnies and see how you can help!

I volunteered on last Friday, and Minnie's treats every member of the society with so much care and compassion. I enjoyed every minute volunteering at this location, and I felt that I was able to make a difference in the community. One of the best non profits in the DFW area for sure.

Focus is on helping families, veterans and other people in need in the community with a variety of resources. Food of course being one, and a lot of food passes thru that facility, but also with training on finances and how to prepare meals with the food received. Also, there are clothing items, books, and other sundry items. The staff is beyond nice, they are family to these people. I was impressed and will be volunteering agian

I loved volunteering with Minnies Food Pantry!! They made it fun and it was organized so that everyone was maximizing their efforts!!

Great group experience! Dancing, singing, and laughing are all part of the package! You also get to sort REAL food to be provided to families in need. What a great combination!

I was absolutely blown away by Cheryl and the entire staff. The experience was fantastic. I had a blast and, more importantly, the opportunity to help serve an undeniably worthwhile cause. It was a blessing. What a wonderful organization. I definitely want to go back and volunteer again....soon !

I volunteered with my company and it was an inspiring experience - I look forward to volunteering my time and donations to Minnie's in the future.

Minnie's Food Pantry is a full service shop that includes food services and educational opportunities for people in need of a loving helping hand! I was very impressed with the huge facility and all the people involved. They literally roll out the red carpet for guest services!

I had a great experience at Minnie's Food Pantry. I have volunteered at many places in the past few years but none have been as rewarding as helping out at Minnie's. Everyone there was extremely friendly and made all the volunteers feel welcomed and appreciated. I especially enjoyed meeting some of the clients that come in for services. I had the opportunity to help carry out the food and really enjoyed talking to the clients and learning a bit about each of them. I also really liked how well organized Minnie's operation is, it seems to all work so well and I know the reason is because of the great staff they have. Congratulations on your great team!!

This was a great experience in giving back and seeing the actual hand-off to those that are in need. I had the pleasure of being my first time volunteer at Minnie's food Pantry. The staff was very welcoming, organized and grateful.

I will be back to donate my time to volunteer and will tell others as well.

This is the first time that I have volunteered at Minnies Food Pantry Inc. My first reaction was
very positive! The overall energy and attitude is very welcoming and friendly. The people at check in were kind and patient, they did not seem frustrated or overwhelmed with a full house of people. The facility seems extremely organized and CLEAN. I will volunteer again at some point in the future.

About 20 of us volunteered from our company. We received orientation and assignments. We were busy from 8AM until 11:30AM, non stop. I LOVED it!

The staff at Minnie's was great. They were very friendly and knowledgeable. They gave us a tour of their facilities, the story behind Minnie's and informed us of their community needs, relationships and people that they serve.

I've volunteered with other organizations in the community and they can be very unorganized and not a good use of our time for the number of employees that come to volunteer. I am very impressed with the organization of the various jobs that we were able to do. I can't believe we prepared and served so many people in that short amount of time.

I would like to go back again.

This was my first time to volunteer at Minnie's. I will definitely be back. The individuals who operate this non profit are amazing! You can tell these people love their charity! The place is super clean, organized and ran like a well-oiled machine. I can't wait to go back and bring my son!

Thank you for a rewarding experience
