Great place to go to for help. You can go weekly and get groceries most of the time good selection but better than most. Programs to help people that just came out of incarceration super friendly staff. That genuinely care about you and your needs. Treats everybody equal. Sometimes it takes a while to get your food because people are being so picky going through stuff but that's to be expected nobody rushes you to make your decisions overall a great place to go for help for groceries

I enjoy the selection of food that they have there and how they changed it to suit the needs of the people. It's a huge help with our food expense through out the month. And if there is something we can't use we give it to someone else that can.

They have helped me out twice with prescription food for my cat who cannot eat regular food. I'm so very grateful! They have also helped me out with dishes, blankets and food when I first moved to Lincoln and had very little for my apartment. They are wonderful folks and I'm forever grateful to them.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Questions & Answers

How old do you have to be to volunteer in center for people in need and how can you you sign-up to volunteer?

hande ercel | Sep 4, 2018
Center for People in Need | Sep 3, 2020

We don't have an age limit on volunteers. Generally, minors need to be accompanied by an adult. For general volunteering, just show up during normal business hours and we'll get you setup to work. Tuesdays and Fridays are best (we distribute food on those days), but we have a need for volunteers every week day. For special events, we post volunteer opportunity sign-ups on our Facebook and website. If you have additional questions or need directions to the Center, please don't hesitate to call 402.476.4357. Thank you!

When I went back this fall when I ran out of work for a while they did not ask for anything, but I have a history with them of seasonal work and dry spells. Eventually they will ask for bank statements and/or other verification.
