Regional Food Bank Needs 1,400 Volunteers  in April to Prepare, Pack and Sort Food for the Teacher Walkout and Beyond

(OKLAHOMA CITY) –The Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma seeks more than 1,400 volunteers in April to sort, pack and prepare food to fight hunger during the teacher walkout and beyond.
“We invite individuals, community groups and corporate groups to volunteer so we can feed the one in four Oklahoma children with inconsistent access to healthy food,” said Katie Fitzgerald. “In addition to providing enough food to feed 136,000 Oklahomans each week, we are distributing additional meals to help students, families and school personnel impacted by the walkout.”
Volunteer tasks include: packing boxes for families impacted by the walkout, bagging and boxing food products, preparing fresh food for students in Hope’s Kitchen, processing protein donations in the USDA Protein Processing Center and stocking shelves at the Moore Food & Resource Center.
Volunteer opportunities are available Monday through Saturday and include morning, afternoon and evening shifts. The Volunteer Center welcomes volunteers starting as young as eight years old. Volunteers under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult. To view available opportunities and register to volunteer, visit regionalfoodbank.org/volunteer, email volunteer@regionalfoodbank.org or call 405-600-3161.
Families with school-age children and impacted school personnel in need of food assistance can visit regionalfoodbank.org/gethelp or call 405-972-1111 to find a pantry or feeding site in their community.
To make a donation to provide food assistance during the teacher walkout, or for more information about the Regional Food Bank’s efforts, visit regionalfoodbank.org/supportstudents.
