Every Friday Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Iowa is proud to offer bags of shelf stable food to our Club members and their families to take home. The bags consist of 2 entrees, 1 can of vegetables, 1 can of fruit, a breakfast item and snacks. We need help distributing these bags to our families and recording what is taken. This is a fun and easy task where you get to know lots of awesome kids and play a great role in keeping them healthy and fed. The shift is from 3-5:30 p.m. on Fridays at our Ellis I. Levitt Club located at Carver Elementary, 705 E University Avenue, Des Moines, IA 50316. We hope to have a handful of volunteers that can rotate weeks and be a familiar face to our families. Please let us know if you are interested.
