Day of Service and Birthday Celebration - Houston Food Bank

Get ready to sprinkle some birthday cheer and a whole lot of helpfulness! Join the Debbie Richards, past president of ATD Houston, for a special "Day of Service" and birthday celebration at the Houston Food Bank on Saturday, May 3rd, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM CST!

Let's turn Debbie's 70th birthday into a powerhouse of positive impact as we team up to tackle some super important tasks at the warehouse. Think of it as a party with a purpose! We'll be like food-sorting superheroes, carefully inspecting, sorting, and repackaging donated goodies so they can zoom off to help our Houston community.

Parking Pointers: If the volunteer parking stars align, you might snag a spot in the front lot. But just in case we have a super squad of helpers (which we hope!), you might be directed to the overflow lot behind the building. Adventure awaits!

Dress Code for Do-Gooders: Dust off your comfiest casual duds, and definitely rock some closed-toe shoes – safety first, superhero style! Long pants are preferred for maximum comfort during our mission, and a t-shirt with sleeves will complete your heroic ensemble. If you have trusty work gloves, feel free to bring them along for extra grip!

Ready to roll up your sleeves and spread some joy (and birthday wishes)? Fantastic! Let's make this day a truly memorable one by making a real difference together! We can't wait to see your smiling faces and helping hands!
