If you are interested in volunteering with this event some of the possible areas to volunteer include:

Stage 1: Boxes are constructed and filled with non-perishable food items such as  vegatables, stuffing and canned goods.
Stage 2: Foodbox drive thru distribution- Volunteers finish filling the foodboxes with perishable items like turkey, bread and pies, and then the finished box is given to the pre-registered family.
