Give a few hours to the Free Community Meal - everyone is welcome and no experience is needed.
🇺🇸 California, United States544 views
Every year the Free Community Meal brings together 477 neighbors in Bakersfield. I help organize it with 7 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down.
We need people for registration, sorting donations and carrying boxes. Shifts are four hours long and you can pick the one that suits you. Food and drinks are provided for all volunteers.
It's a family-friendly day, and our goal is to keep it free. No experience is necessary - we'll brief everyone at the start of the day.
If you can come with a friend, even better. Please say in the comments which shift works for you.
Thank you for reading my story.

Sending strength, Jayden. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
Sending strength, Jayden. Great idea, hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Sheffield.

Wishing you the best, Jayden. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Phuket

More neighborhoods should do this. After 20 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Moscow!
