With the joyous season of holidays upon us, Heart of Compassion knows there are many families in need who need a helping hand in these difficult times. They will be hosting a Thanksgiving Turkey & Food Drive Giveaway to help more than 1,000 families put a nice Thanksgiving meal on their table this year. This event will include live music, djs, and many giveaways. This will be a drive-thru event, due to COVID precautions. Recipients will be able to stay in their vehicles and drive through the parking lot and volunteers will help load groceries and Thanksgiving fixings into waiting vehicles. As this will be a much larger event than their weekly public food distributions, they will need many more volunteers than other events they host. Feel free to invite friends and family members to join as volunteers! Due to safety concerns, they require volunteers to be at least 13 years old (and accompanied by an adult if they are minors.)

This is CityHeART's annual Thanksgiving meal for the homeless and formerly homeless community in Long Beach.

Project Angel Food is looking for volunteer drivers to deliver meals to their most vulnerable neighbors. Details as follows: Deliver to 5 -7 clients. You will need to provide your own vehicle. Pick up client meals at Project Angel Food. Pick-up time will be staggered between 9am-12noon and I will provide your time when we get closer to the date. If you have a preference, let me know. Since there will be more volunteers delivering than usual, there may be a wait time for pick-ups so plan on 4 hours from start to finish. Routes will be determined based on Dispatch/Staff Driver needs and your location preferences/limitations and availability. Let me know what area you would like to end up. I can try to send you in that direction. Review and sign our Liability Waiver form for each participant. Review our Confidentiality and Privacy Laws Fact Sheet and return with your signature (each participant) or bring it with you when you pick up your meals. Provide a photo or copy of the license and proof of insurance for the drivers.
