Volunteer for Buddy Box Packing, Sunday, May 3
Please sign up to help pack Buddy Boxes and join your Colonial Hills neighbors at the Worthington warehouse of the Buddy Box Connection, 6520 Singletree Dr, Columbus, OH 43229 — on Sunday, May 3, from 1:00-2:00 PM.
Many children who qualify for free lunch or reduced fee lunch at their schools have little to eat at home and return to school after weekends distracted by their hunger and unable to focus on learning.
Buddy Box Connection’s goal is to bridge the gap; to send these kids home with a Buddy Box every Friday during the school year to alleviate their hunger. A Buddy Box is a box filled with kid-friendly, nutritious, nonperishable, individual sized-food items that are easy for children to eat or prepare on their own. These meals and snacks help sustain children on the weekends when they are not in school.
Please visit Buddy Box Connection for more information about additional opportunities to volunteer or donate.
