Description

Grab your co-workers and come join us for our annual IAEE Southeastern Chapter community service project. Volunteers will help unload and sort food donations that will aid in the mission to fight against food insecurity across metro Atlanta. 

   

This a warehouse setting, and volunteers will be moving and walking on concrete.  Volunteers will be asked to assist with packing food boxes, sorting assorted food items, and constructing empty boxes for future builds.  It will be warm since there is no air conditioning, so dress comfortably.  

 

Be prepared to meet new people and build relationships within the IAEE Southeastern Chapter, while donating your time to assist families in need throughout the area!

Time: 9:00 am – 11:00 am

RSVP: No later than Wednesday, May 8th

At Urban Recipe,  the following safety measures are in place:

  • If you feel sick prior to your scheduled volunteer time, please stay home.
  • Hand sanitizer and gloves available
  • We follow safety standards set by the CDC as they are updated and released.

Parking

  • You are encouraged to park in the gated lot outside of the warehouse.

What to Bring, Tips and Hints for a Great Day

  • Wear comfortable clothes (jeans, t-shirt) and sneakers. You will be moving and lifting donations on a concrete floor so you will want comfy, rubber-soled shoes.
  • Please wear layers as the warehouse fluctuates with the weather. This is a warehouse facility, exposed to outside elements at times, and the indoor temperature may fluctuate throughout the shift. You will be moving around a lot so you will warm up quickly. 
  • Please try to arrive on time as we will do a brief group volunteer orientation at the start of the shift and it helps to have all the volunteers together at one time to explain our process.

Be ready to have fun as we help others in the community!
