Help Feed Hungry Kids This Summer

Save to Favorites

Children need proper nutrition to learn and stay active. Neighbors serves nutritious breakfasts and lunches to students during summer school. Individuals and groups of all ages are needed to help setup food lines, serve meals, and develop positive community relationships with students. Your support will provide students a healthy meal to get them through their day.

Ways to Help

• Server - help with light food prep and serve meals to students. This role is group friendly, youth friendly, and ESL friendly.

Time Commitment

• Volunteer for a minimum of one shift at breakfast, lunch or both.
• Shifts vary by school site, but generally include:
  • Monday - Thursday: 7:30 am - 10:00 am, and 10:30 am - 1:00 pm.
  • Summer meals coincide with summer school schedules, but generally take place between mid-June and mid-August.
  • School sites include grade schools and high schools in the northern Dakota County area.
  • An ongoing commitment is preferred; however, short term and one-time volunteers are also welcome.
