Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Your group is invited to prepare healthy snacks (such as sandwiches, fruit, or cheese and crackers, and a healthy drink) for approximately 75 teens enrolled in our Youth Education & Development Program (YEDP). This project is offered from on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 2:00-5:00pm. First, we invite you to come to Canal Alliance for a tour of our organization. Then, we thought it fun for YEDP staff to accompany you to a local market to obtain the items. We would greatly appreciate it if you could purchase these items on our behalf. Generally a $75 donation would cover the cost of the snacks. We are happy to complete a donation receipt for your generosity. We will return to Canal Alliance, prepare the snacks, and then distribute them to the students.
