Volunteer Opportunities
Summer Packing Dates: We have a few packing days scheduled over the summer. Please use the SUMMER PACKING DAYS button below to sign up and read about the specific instructions for the days regarding groups and children volunteering.
Summer Packing Dates: We need delivery drivers this summer to pick up weekend bags, take them to an assigned location and stay for about 45-60 minutes to help pass out the bags. This volunteer opportunity is for adults, 19 and older, but you may bring your younger children with you. Please do no put any children n the sign up sheets. Use the SUMMER DELIVERY DAYS button below to read more information and to sign up.
Break Bag Delivery Drivers: The week before each school break (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Winter & Spring Breaks) we need delivery drivers to help take our Break Bags to the schools. These are larger reusable grocery bags that we send out to each school in the county. During these weeks we try to give our regular delivery drivers a break and seek more volunteers. If you are interested in helping deliver these bags, please watch for the sign up once school starts in the fall,
Thursday Morning Packing Crew: We would love to have a regular small group of volunteers who could come in on specific Thursdays of each month during the school year to help us unload, set up and reload bins from 9:30-11am. You may sign up using the Thursday Morning Crew button below or if you have a small group of 5-10 that would like to commit to helping us in this way, please email Nicole McNutt at nmcnutt.bpb@gmail.com.
Sub Drivers: Each week, we have some of our regular delivery drivers out for various reasons (sickness, vacation, etc.) and we are always looking for people to deliver bags to these schools. If you would like to be added to our sub driver GroupMe page, please email Nicole at nmcnutt.bpb@gmail.com to be added. Each week we will send out the need on the GroupMe page and you can volunteer for a specific school that is listed when you are available.
If you have any questions regarding volunteer times, please reach out to Nicole at nmcnutt.bpb@gmail.com
Host a Food Drive
We are always in need of food! Currently it has been harder for us to buy the items we need in bulk from the Atlanta Food Bank and we are having to buy food at local wholesale clubs. With need the help from our community to host food drives for us. These drives have been a huge success in helping us collect the items we need most. You have greater reach into our community resources and we would love for you to help us in this way. See our food list by clicking HERE to see what items we are using during this season. If you would like to host a food drive at your office or neighborhood please email Nicole at nmcnutt.bpb@gmail.com for more information.
