Sisters in Service: Volunteer Day- Nashville Chapter

Sisters in Service: Second Harvest Volunteer Day Join the Nashville Chapter of Sisters in Public Health as we come together to make a meaningful impact in Middle Tennessee! During this volunteer experience at Second Harvest Food Bank, we'll help advance their mission by sorting and preparing food for individuals and families facing food insecurity.This is an opportunity to connect with fellow members while exploring the critical public health issues of food security, health equity, and community well-being. We ask that you don't sign up unless you are sure that you can and will attend. This volunteer slot is capped at 10 people so we want to make sure we're keeping sign ups available for those who absolutely want to volunteer.
