Kiwanis Plans to "Feed More" This Fall

Feedmore.jpg

Our Club has been a volunteer participant in the FeedMore Backpack program for many years.  Unfortunately, the backpack program opportunities are not available due to changing requirements and lower demand as a result of the Covid pandemic. 

Fortunately, we have a new opportunity that involves preparing food portions for food delivery through Meals on Wheels and other services. Activities include dividing large trays of food into separate portions or packaging drinks or other items included with the meal. The working environment is with paid employees and other volunteers.  It is an air-conditioned kitchen area with specific workstations. 

There are two shifts available: 8 am-noon or 12:30-4:30pm, Monday-Friday. 5-6 participants are requested for each shift. Scheduling is done two weeks to a month in advance. We would like to begin volunteering again at FeedMore in September. If you are interested in being a part of this project, please fill out the following online interest form, indicating the days and times that you willing and able to work.

If you have and questions or suggestions, please contact Dick Rheutan at drdipstick@verizon.net. We can’t wait to get back to serving our community!
