This is a fun project and also helping those less fortunate. Roadrunner Food Bank is located at 5840 Office Blvd Ne. Phone is 242-2052. We will be sorting and packing from 10am to 12 pm although you can stay longer if you want. They are open from 9am to 4pm on that day.

They are on the right.

It's important and respectful that your RSVP is accurate so please make sure you're going to come if you say yes and change your maybe to yes or no once you know for sure.

    They will take as many volunteers as are available. They are planning on around 50 for this event. We will probably be packing and/or sorting the food that was donated from last Saturday's food drive.

    •  A good experience working to help others - a great way to give back! Nice to meet those I met! 
    •  Great people to work with. I think we could have gotten more done if we had worked in teams in the sorting department - maybe 4 to a box, each with a different type of can good; but it was my first time and was glad to be able to help, I'll do it again! 
    •  It was a lot of fun. Many people there and my grand-daughter and I really enjoyed the experience.
