Full Job Description

Who We Are

Gather‘s mission is to offer innovative programs that build food security in welcoming and dignified ways. Founded in 1816, Gather is one of the oldest social service agencies in the country. For over two centuries, Gather has been a regional leader in addressing food insecurity. In addition to the Pantry Market in Portsmouth, NH, Gather addresses the immediate hunger need by distributing food to other Seacoast communities through our Mobile Markets, Meals 4 Kids program, and our Fresh Food Bus. Food that would otherwise be wasted is turned into delicious, to-go meals through our Cooking 4 Community program in the kitchens at Gather’s headquarters and at UNH. Gather Café serves food insecure students and the larger community at Great Bay Community College.

In an effort to address the underlying issues that cause food insecurity, Gather offers cooking, gardening, and nutrition education programs to those wanting to learn how to eat healthy food on a budget. Our social service partners join us in our space to offer wrap-around supports, helping our members address needs beyond food. Finally, Gather’s Fresh Start Culinary Workforce Training Program provides a pathway to employment for those experiencing barriers.
