About
This is a partnership with the mid-south Food Bank.
Mondays at 5pm or Tuesdays at 10:30am, approximately 300 food relief boxes are assembled and packed.
Wednesdays, the food boxes are distributed to Shelby county residents from 10-12pm. Boxes are placed in automobiles or handed to those who walk to the church. Usually 200-300 boxes are given out. If raining or bad weather is forecast, boxes are distributed the following day.
Volunteers should dress comfortably. UTHSC gear is acceptable.
If event is cancelled, usually related to bad weather or problems or a delay with fool delivery, volunteers will be notified by email.
