On Saturday, November 22nd volunteers will gather to package 1,000 Thanksgiving meals for families in our community. Meals will be delivered to local food pantries and programs through our Hunger Commission and distributed to families they serve.
How to Get Involved
Volunteer
Volunteers are needed for a variety of tasks at Hunger Heroes. Registration opens in October. You must pre-register to volunteer. Registration fills up quickly so we recommend registering early. Once spots fill up, a cancellation list will be started. There are multiple shifts throughout the day, but we ask your group only register for 1 shift in order to allow for as many groups to participate as possible.
