Brookland is an emerging mecca of all things cool and hip, from the trendy new restaurants to after-work hang out spots. One spot, however, that has remained cool throughout the years is the Capital Area Food Bank and its after-hours volunteer opportunities.
Warehouse Wednesday brings together the city’s movers and shakers for a fun, two-hour networking and volunteering event after work. In collaboration with the DC Chamber of Commerce Emerging Professionals Program, we invite you to come out, bring a date, and roll up your “do gooder” sleeves in honor of Hunger Action Month this September.
This fall, our need for food donations and volunteers is high. This event is one way to engage more young and motivated individuals in our mission to provide 37 million meals annually to our neighbors in need.
Do-gooders at Warehouse Wednesday will sort and pack non-perishable food donations in the CAFB’s Northeast DC Warehouse. The food is then prepared or distributed by hundreds of community partners serving low-income kids, seniors and families in the Washington metro area.
The event is free, but registration is required by September 5. To sign up, visit: http://warehousewednesday.splashthat.com.
