Happy Holidays to you! I know it is close to the holidays but that makes this volunteer project that much more important as we need to help the Food Bank distribute as much food and aid as possible for those in need. I am looking for volunteers for the Akron Canton Food Bank service project.
The date is Wednesday, December 21 from 4:30pm to 6:30pm at the Akron location which is located at 350 Opportunity Parkway, Akron, OH 44307. After the food bank service project anyone is welcome to join me in going out to dinner at a downtown Akron restaurant to be determined later.

The service project involves breaking down large containers of food into smaller portions for redistribution to area food pantries. The two hours flies by as we all have fun with the project and we get the opportunity to meet a few new people from other organizations/companies that are there volunteering as well.
IF YOU HAVE NOT VOLUNTEERED BEFORE AT THE FOOD BANK THEN I NEED YOU TO REGISTER. See volunteer application link below.
If you have any questions please call or text me at 330-714-1044.
I need a head count by noon Friday December 16th, so if you would please let me know by then if you plan on attending by sending me an email or text: dhall@preferredlegacy.com or 330-714-1044. I greatly appreciate it!
Thank you for volunteering!
