How to Get Involved
Volunteers are needed and welcome for both the packing on Friday and the distribution on Saturday morning. Volunteers are needed throughout both days. Anything from volunteering the entire two days to a part of one day is welcome and appreciated. Families, clubs and teams often participate as a group. Board members are available to validate volunteer hours for students. Parents may bring children to help as long as they are supervised. It is not necessary to sign-up prior to volunteering.
All packing and distribution takes place at Brentwood Elementary School at 200 Griffith Lane in Brentwood.
