Description
DASH is one of the longest-running, key signature programs here at UNLV. Join UNLVolunteers as we build peanut butter and jelly sandwiches lunch bags to hand out during the community lunch hour at the Salvation Army
We will be meeting at the first floor of the Student Union near the eating bar at 11:15 a.m. to begin our meal prep shift. Volunteers will participate in a short educational activity followed immediately by preparing lunch bags to hand out at the Salvation Army, as well as delivering and distributing the bags during Salvation Army's community lunch hour.
Volunteers will be given 2.5 hours for the delivery shift. Volunteers may be asked by the Salvation Army to aid and assist at their kitchen prior to and during the community lunch. Transportation to the Salvation Army is provided but is limited. After the program, we hope participants will take their involvement to the next level by seeking other ways to do service and seeking to provide long-term solutions to social inequalities such as food and housing insecurity.
