Event Description:
Come out and spend a few hours sorting the important food donations that are later distributed to the agencies that need them.
What we'll be doing:
Volunteers will be in the warehouse sorting food drive items into bins or boxes, repacking boxes of food, or re-labeling boxes. This organization runs like a well-oiled machine and we get to be gears making it work!
What you should know:
Wear pants and closed toe shoes. Wear clothes you don't mind getting a little dirty. If you have work gloves/gardening gloves, please bring them to avoid wasting their plastic gloves
Where to Meet:
Parking is located at the rear of the building. Enter the building near the parking lot, and meet your One Brick Event Manager inside the meeting room.
