    Description

    Hello,

    We are currently looking for a volunteer available on Wednesday evenings to assist with meal service for our Music & Arts program at The Salvation Army on Maple Street from 5-7 PM.

    We serve 20–25 students each week, providing not only free music instruction but also a generous hot meal, as many of the children come directly from school. This meal is an important part of the evening and helps ensure they are cared for before participating in their classes.

    The volunteer would work alongside a team to warm the meals, serve the students, and assist with cleanup at the end of the evening. The program runs through the end of April and will resume again in the fall.

    If you have some time in your week and a heart for supporting children in our community, we would love to have you join us.

    Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

    Thank you.

    On-site
