2024 Eat & Be Well Thanksgiving Event

On the day before Thanksgiving, November 27, 2024, at 11:00 a.m., Project Boon will serve hot Thanksgiving meals to the community and hand out whole uncooked turkeys along with the sides needed for a traditional Thanksgiving meal to families in the Inland Empire. The event will occur at Cypress Neighborhood Center, 8380 Cypress Ave, Fontana, CA 92335. We plan to provide over a thousand hot meals to the community and provide four hundred under-resourced families with turkeys and groceries!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I register for more than one shift? No. Please limit registration to one shift for the day. We want to give as many people the opportunity to volunteer as possible. Please choose one shift that is ideal for you. If a volunteer registers for two shifts, Project Boon may cancel extra registrations. This is to ensure there are spots available for prospective volunteers.

When should I arrive at the event? Please arrive at your scheduled shift time in order to park and make your way to the volunteer check-in.

What do I do when I arrive at the event? Volunteers will be asked to park in designated parking, which will be announced before the event. There will be a volunteer check-in booth near the designated volunteer parking area. Please check in before your shift, as you will be assigned a position for the duration of your shift. You will also be given a Project Boon T-shirt when you arrive, so please be prepared with your shirt size.

What is the minimum age to volunteer? You must be at least 14 years of age and accompanied by an adult chaperone to volunteer at Eat & Be Well. There are no exceptions to this rule.

Do I have to wear a mask? Volunteers serving food will be asked to wear a mask. Anyone who is not serving food can wear a mask if they feel more comfortable doing so.

Do I need to sign up to volunteer ahead of time? Yes. Time slots will be filled on a first- come, first-serve basis. We will not add additional shifts once spots fill up.

Are there other ways I can support Eat & Be Well? Yes! We gladly accept canned foods, uncooked turkeys, or monetary donations. If you would like to make a financial donation, please click here.
