More than 10 million adults 50 and older live below the poverty line. This summer, AARP Foundation is leading a Summer of Service to Seniors and traveling to Memphis, Denver, Minneapolis-St. Paul, and Washington DC to pack 3 million meals for older adults.
Join us on Sunday, August 6th 2017 in St. Paul at the University of St. Thomas - AARC Field House for this exciting meal packing event.
Meal packing is entertaining and fun, – always safe – and very easy. You will work with teams of volunteers in a joyful celebration of giving. You will be clearly shown what to do. While the time passes quickly, you will be on your feet for 90 minutes; so if you fatigue easily, please let us know, and we can assign you to a task that can be performed while seated. Quality and precision are far more important than speed, but in your brief time with us, you will have the satisfaction of participating in the packing of thousands of meals for those in need.
