Volunteering at Community Servings in Jamaica Plain has been nothing short of heartwarming. Under the exceptional leadership of Nick, the director, the organization runs a tight ship, ensuring that every volunteer experience is not only meaningful but also well-coordinated. The dedication and enthusiasm of everyone who volunteers make each session an absolute joy. The collaborative effort and positive energy create an environment that is both fulfilling and fun. Kudos to Nick and the entire team at Community Servings for making a difference and turning every volunteer opportunity into a rewarding experience!

2nd time volunteering here. Very well run organization that provides medically tailored meals to people in the Greater Boston area. Volunteering is easy, just sign up for a slot on their website. The work is hard, but very rewarding.

If it wasn't for Fernandez (one of the employees ) this place might be a 4 star but because of him It should be a 10 star.

To be clear this review is about my experience with the way I was treated by a worker at Community Servings when I volunteered on 8/11/23. I believe the man's name was "NATHAN" he only said his name quick in a group setting and then kept his ID card hidden in his shirt pocket the whole time. Anyways, me and a friend of mine were the only 2 black females volunteering that day and that worker was also a black man. He was very condescending to us the minute we went in the back to help out. We started by cutting up fish and weighing them. After that we were filling up plates to pack up individual meals. I was there from 9am-11:40am when I signed out. I was supposed to come back for a 2nd shift at 1pm but I couldn't get over the trauma of the verbal abuse I experienced from this man. He didn't treat any of the white people who were in that area but felt it was ok to disrespect the 2 black females there as if we less than. We are 2 healthcare professionals. He didn't want us to ask him any questions and felt like we were supposed to know who everything goes. This was my first time volunteering in this place. I've done a lot of volunteering with Rescuing Leftover Cuisine and The Greater Boston Food Bank and it's always been very pleasant. VERBAL ABUSE should not be tolerated by a worker in any way shape or form. I shouldn't have to be traumatized and distraught when all I wanted was to help in a community. I know in circumstances like that nothing will happen to the worker. So please don't bother putting any fake response asking me to contact you guys. I will be sure to let this experience be known and report this man in every way that I can.

I'm a PCA and I've seen some horrid things these people do and ask while dropping off the food. One guy kept asking my client for cigarettes and when she stop giving them to him, he stopped giving her milk. That's just one example. I understand these programs are to help those in need but hiring people who steal food and ask clients for cigarettes, sodas, etc. it defeats the purpose. These people have very little as it is. It's a sad situation for all.

I’m a new client set up through my doctors office I waited and did my phone interview and was approvedWas told my delivery date would be the following friday 3/3/23 and so I waited at home all day long and didn’t order groceries for my self thinking I was getting my delivery. I called them and a lady told me sorry and said call back Monday I have repeatedly called and left voicemails and no one has answeredIt’s been three days with no response thank you to another agency who has completely made me feel like I’m unworthy of help and unworthy of even answering the phone too

Amazing place and mission. We went for one shift with an organized group for work. We hope to all return again to do our tiny part in what Community Servings does to help the area
