At our new event volunteers will help package 15,000 meals for local food banks, churches, and other food service programs to distribute throughout our community.

150 volunteers are needed for the UNITED To End Hunger food packaging event which runs from 3:00-4:30pm on Thursday, September 13th at Sauk Valley Community College.

United Way already supports child hunger relief with their summer lunch program, Serving Up Summer. This new initiative is part of their effort to provide food for families whose kids depend on meals provided by schools during the school year. The food packaging event helps offset local child hunger. The food insecurity rate in Lee County is 10.7%.

Each package serves four people. Using volunteers, United Way keeps costs to 25 cents a serving, or $3,750 for the entire truck load. Sponsorship and donations are essential.

Anyone can volunteer to package meals or help with set up or clean up after the event. Work as an individual or come as a team and run our own packaging line. We welcome everyone to participate- families, friends, students, civic groups, anyone and everyone. The more, the merrier.

Packing food might not sound like fun, but we promise a good time while doing something worthwhile.

Deliver groceries to home-bound seniors on select Saturday mornings. This is an excellent opportunity for individuals as well as families and friends to volunteer together and brighten the day for our community's seniors in need!

Volunteers will come out to our food pantry (near I-15 and Cheyenne) where they will be given very full grocery bags and a route with delivery instructions and turn by turn directions. Duration depends on the route and traffic, but typically, it takes our volunteers 2 hours to complete their route to deliver to 4-6 seniors.

Drivers must be 18 years of age, but passengers of all ages are welcome to help.

*Please note: this opportunity is not available for people seeking completion of court-ordered community service hours.

We use the proceeds to fund hunger relief efforts in the Twin Cities, and each pair of shoes sold will purchase a week's worth of groceries for someone in need. We look forward to serving with you!
