Description

Operation Backpack provides weekly food bags to get students through the weekend when school meals are not available. Participating children are discreetly given these backpacks to take home, enabling them to come back to school on Monday with the good nutrition and focus they need to achieve academic success.

 

This volunteer opportunity is to help pack/organize food to our partners that are picking up the food. (PLEASE NOTE THIS IS NOT AN OPPRUNITY TO DISTRIBUTE FOOD TO CHILDREN).

 

Volunteers will be sorting boxes of milk and cereal by school/organization order. This includes lifting boxes and placing them on pallets. This activity does require some heavy lifting. 

 

Please enter through Operation Food Search's lobby when arriving to volunteer. Please dress for the weather, packing takes place in a warehouse setting with limited heat.
