Event Description - Bos - Greater Boston Food Bank Community Service
This event has been canceled.  We apologize for the inconvenience. 
Join your fellow Boston alumni as we volunteer with the Greater Boston Food Bank and help to end hunger in Eastern Massachusetts. Volunteers play a critical role in ending hunger by giving their time and talent to support the Greater Boston Food Bank, and we hope that you'll come out to participate as our CMU alumni give back to the Boston community. 

Volunteers will be inspecting, sorting, and packing food and grocery products. All volunteers must be 16 years of age or older, and all volunteers under 18 require an adult chaperone. More information about volunteer requirements may be found on the registration page.

For more information about the Greater Boston Food Bank, visit their website.

Registration is required for this event. Space is limited, so please register early if you want to join us.

Cost:
Free to attend

Volunteer Requirements
- All volunteers MUST wear closed-toed shoes in order to volunteer. You should wear comfortable clothes that can get dirty, as our product can be dusty at times. The warehouse tends to be chilly in the winter and hot in the summer, so layered clothing is suggested. Volunteers work around machinery so loosely hanging items (such as longer necklaces)should be avoided and long hair pulled back.

- While a few tasks require the ability to lift a 30-pound box, most tasks require only that a volunteer stand and inspect products for a couple of hours.

- All volunteers must be 16 years of age or older. All volunteers under 18 require an adult chaperone.
