What to Wear and Expect:

• We recommend not bringing any valuable items with you as we are not responsible for any lost or stolen items. 
• The activities for the event are announced on the morning of the event as they are dependent on what donations we receive. Generally, volunteers help to sort and package fresh produce, non-perishable food, or food drive items. These projects are moderately physical. Volunteers may be involved in moving moderate to heavy items.
