Micah’s Backpack welcomes volunteers to pack and deliver backpacks on a weekly basis during the school year. Thursdays we pack bags from 6:15 pm to 7:15 pm. Individuals or groups/clubs (who create their own rotating schedule of 2 volunteers ) gather to fill 200 gifts for children and youth in our community. Fridays we deliver bags to 9 schools. Individuals may sign up to deliver bags between 9 am and noon to our partner schools.
If you are interested in these volunteer opportunities please contact Jennie at  jennie@micahssoupforseniors.acciai.us.
