Please join the OWLS Community Service Committee on March 19 from 6:00 -8:00 pm for an evening volunteering at the Oregon Food Bank! We will be helping out at the Portland Warehouse to repack and/or sort food donations. Join us to help support this essential service in our community while getting to know some of your fellow OWLS members. Partners and families are welcome (age 8+).
Event Details:
Wednesday, March 19, 6pm-8pm
Oregon Food Bank’s Portland Warehouse

Event Description:
The project depends on the needs of the Oregon Food Bank Network. Volunteer shifts can include multiple projects. Volunteers should be prepared for a potentially cool warehouse setting. To keep hands warm we provide liners for the food-safe gloves. The shift might entail one or more of the following tasks:
- Sort canned and boxed food donations into categories
- Repack and label bulk food items into family-size portions
- Cull and sort produce
Kids ages 8+ are welcome, but anyone under age 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
Note: Oregon Food Bank is a facility that processes common food allergens.
