February Volunteering: Chattanooga Area Food Bank

Looking to give back this February? Join us for a fun, hands-on day at the Chattanooga Area Food Bank! This is a great chance to help our community by sorting and packing food for those in need. It's an awesome way to meet new people and make a real difference. Let’s come together and spread some love this month.

Please RSVP on Eventbrite AND through the Chattanooga Area Food Bank. The link to register with the Food Bank will be sent out with your confirmation email.

Please only sign up if you are actually able to make it! Spaces are limited and we want to be as impactful as possible.
