On Saturday, May 30th the Outreach Committee of the Church of Reconciliation (a.k.a. Rec) is organizing a pop-up food distribution in partnership with the San Antonio Food Bank. Neighbors are also invited to choose from donated clothing, shoes, diapers, baby items, and children's books as needed.
This is an amazing opportunity to support our neighbors, and we need your help. We are requesting donations of time, diapers, clothing, books, and funds to offer these resources to the neighborhood. Thank you for considering these requests, and for your support.
Who: You, and your friends! We need about 40 volunteers.
What: Volunteer opportunities for all ages and abilities
When: Friday, May 29th @ 6-8 PM (preparing Brown Hall) and Saturday, May 30th from 6:00 AM -11:00 AM (arrival time varies by volunteer role)
The distributions will continue rain or shine.
Where: Church of Reconciliation, 8900 Starcrest Drive
Why: To demonstrate our faith by supporting our neighbors
If you cannot volunteer with us that weekend but are interested in volunteering at another community resource day, please fill out the form so we can contact you in the future.
We are preparing to serve 250 households with 70-120 pounds of food (per family of 4). Food distribution items include fresh produce, shelf stable items, protein, and often frozen food. The distribution is intended to supplement a household's groceries for two weeks.
In addition to food, neighbors will be invited into Brown Hall to select clothing, shoes, diapers, baby items, and children's books they made need.
