Event Description

Let's meet-up to help the Food Bank of NJ. For this event we will be working in the Food Bank warehouse; sorting and re-packing food items, sorting children's clothes for underprivileged kids or re-stocking school supplies in the Kids' Division. The exact activity will be determined the day of the event but know that no matter what we do it will be together as a group and new friends will be made.

Laura, I went to register my friend Sarah and I, and it said the event was sold out.  Can we still volunteer?

This is a great organization....As a teacher in an urban community, they let teachers come in and take supplies for our classrooms!  I will try to make it out to help!
