Community Involvement

What We Believe

What is Community Involvement? In addition to making new friends, community involvement is volunteering time and talents to make a difference where it matters, in your community!
Community involvement is also a great way to change lives. It has been proven that volunteers live happier and healthier lives by doing good deeds and seeing the rewards of those in need.

Please join us in a local community and let’s make a difference.

On average, approximately 300 meals are needed each day. A large percentage of students rely on this meal as their primary daily food source.
