VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR JUNE

June has arrived and summer calendars are filling up fast ☀️🎶
With vacations and travel plans underway, we currently have several volunteer openings and would love some extra hands in the kitchen this month!

Every single day of the year, we fill two important volunteer shifts to help keep meals going out to our community.

🍽️ 9am-11am
Help prepare the daily meal by chopping ingredients, opening cans, making sandwiches, and packing sack lunches.

🥪 11am-1pm
Help serve lunch to patrons through our cafeteria-style line.

The dates we need help this month are listed in the photo, and many of the dates marked “urgent” currently have no volunteers scheduled.

No matter the season, Good Samaritan Inn will continue showing up with a daily, nutritious meal and a welcoming place for those who need it. If you’ve been looking for a way to help your community, this is a great time to jump in and join the crew. 💚

Call 217-429-1455 or email Denise at [email protected] to sign up!
