We need help collecting donations!
You can help by encouraging your friends, family and workplace to donate and help facilitate getting those donations to our storage unit. Volunteers will also pick up if delivery is not an option.
We need volunteers to get donations for and facilitate the meal
We need volunteers to help sort the donations and prepare, especially the week before the event. We pop up just like a store. We’ll have racks, tables, shopping bags- the whole bit.
We need volunteers to help transport the donations from storage to the pop up location the morning of, and help with set up, helping shoppers and clean up
This event will remain public but know we do this guerrilla style. No permits and we aren’t asking for permission to serve those that need a boost. If the pandas show up I will take responsibility and accept a citation 🙂‍↔️

Let’s do this!
