Volunteers will help pack shelf-stable ready to eat food components into grab & go boxes at our warehouse. These boxes are distributed to kids under18 across the state of Ohio at our meal sites and with our many partners! This is part of CHA's Weekend Meal program, one of 7 program that support food access for children across the state of Ohio.

Location is indoors and shifts are select weekday afternoons, 2hour signups. No evenings or weekends available. Most work is completed while standing.

PLEASE VISIT POINT https://pointapp.org/orgs/252 TO DIRECTLY SIGN UP AS AN INDIVIDUAL and view specific dates/times available. Be sure to check frequently as we do have individuals drop out 24-48 hours before the date. POINT is an app also available on AppStore and Google Play.

Reach out if you would like to host a group. Our warehouse can manage groups of 8-12 volunteers, per 2-hour shift on weekday afternoons. Sorry we are not open evenings or weekends. Contact awilson@childrenshungeralliance.org for information on bringing your group.

We offer opportunities year-round not just at the holidays!
