Community Center at Chatham

Be one of 50 volunteers who will package 10,000 meals to be distributed to hungry people around the world. We will gather at 9 AM for setup and begin packing meals at 10 AM. We expect to wrap up between 12:30 – 1:00 PM. After we adjourn, we’ll head to lunch for an optional “dutch treat” lunch.
Volunteers must sign up in advance at a club meeting or by registering online
or by emailing Inez Rodenburg
What to Expect
Volunteers set up and take down packaging stations and equipment, fill bins with raw ingredients, scoop ingredients into meal bags, weigh and seal the bags, box and stack them on pallets, and load the pallets and equipment onto a truck. Volunteers should wear comfortable shoes and casual clothes. Rotarians should wear their Rotary shirt.
