Development Coordinator - Hilliard Food Pantry

Overview

Hilliard Food Pantry Plus is dedicated to enhancing the well‑being of our community by providing food and support. For more than six decades, HFP+ has served Hilliard and surrounding areas through a small, efficient operation that assists neighbors with limited resources. Hunger persists—even in suburban communities—so we currently distribute food to over 14,000 individuals each year and provide utility assistance, holiday support, and other essential services.

Guided by the “plus” in our name, we have expanded our offerings through the Share Closet program, which provides families with clothing, household items, and other necessities. Our VISTA member plays a key role in strengthening the organization by supporting fundraising efforts, developing donor communication systems, and helping plan campaigns that increase community engagement. By building capacity in fundraising, volunteer coordination, and program support, the VISTA member directly advances HFP+’s mission of reducing poverty, supporting families, and fostering a resilient, connected community.

The VISTA member will empower Hilliard Food Pantry Plus to build capacity to better serve families experiencing poverty. They will lead volunteer recruitment, training, and tracking across programs, bolster fundraising efforts and donor communication, and promote the organization's impact through storytelling and social media. They will also play a key role in expanding the Share Closet and other pantry programs by coordinating donation drives, engaging community partners, and hosting program activities.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys organizing systems, engaging with volunteers and donors, and is interested in a community organization that is currently working to grow its reach and impact.
