Weekend Survival Kits

2021 Packing Sessions and Delivery Support

Thank you for considering being a volunteer for Weekend Survival Kits! Our volunteers are extremely important to our mission of giving hope to hungry kids, we could not do this without you! (Keep reading below)

SUMMARY OF DUTIES:

Food Kit Packer – You will be assembling food kits with a team of volunteers. Normally this job consists of an assembly line style process of packing food into zip top bags and then grouping them for storage until Thursday’s pick-up. However, in the age of COVID, many things have changed and sessions might look different than they have in the past. Thank you for staying patient with us as we figure out the best way to serve our kids. You will be standing and/or moving the entire time.

Food Kit Mover – You will be assisting the Delivery Drivers by loading food kits into their vehicles. Dress for the weather as this is both an indoor and outdoor activity. You will be standing and/or moving the entire time.

All volunteer events are at the Community Center of 2|42 Church in Okemos, address is 2630 Bennett Rd. (one driveway west of the church), the building with the green roof.

Please plan on arriving 10 to 15 minutes early as we will have a safety protocol for every volunteer to complete before we get to work. Masks covering your nose and mouth are required during all volunteer events.

If you would like to volunteer and cannot be present for the whole time period, please make a note of that in your sign-up. We would love to have you participate and an alternate can step in to takeover.

We love having families volunteer together! If you are bringing children, please consider their work stamina and willingness to abide by our COVID-19 safety protocols for the full shift. We have a limited number of volunteer positions open and will need all the hard-working hands we can get. As always, thank you for your support!

Please review the available slots and dates below. You can select multiple dates if you’d like! When you click the button next to the date you will see a check mark. Then, you need to go to the bottom of the page and click the button that says "Submit & SignUp". If you are signing up for multiple people, adjust the quantity as necessary.
