SignUpGenius Serves at Loaves and Fishes
Posted by Kate White
Last week, the SignUpGenius team took a break from our computers to spend time serving at Loaves and Fishes, a ministry that has over 20 food pantries in our hometown of Charlotte, NC. The organization provides a week's worth of nutritious groceries to individuals and families in a short-term crisis, and last year alone they served 78,602 people.
During our lunch hour, 12 of our team members helped to sort over 175 boxes containing food and household items. Sorting the items into categories helps the Loaves and Fishes staff stock and distribute goods in a nutritionally balanced way to those in need.

I love SignUpGenius! I am a Girl Scout leader, and we use this site each month to get parents to sign up to help. We also just started using it for our cookie booths, and it has worked wonderfully. Parents and girls can sign up, check and keep track of when they are working, and because it stays in real time, we dont get any double shifts. Thank you for making my life just a little less stressful.
