BECOME A VOLUNTEER FOR FOOD 4R SOULS
We have been serving others in Austin, Indiana since 2015. Thursday is the grand day of the week. We prepare to start cooking the meals at 1:00 pm, complete 200 meals in to-go containers, packing pantry food bags to hand out with meals is also going on at the same time. On the other side of the Jayce Ray Stallings Youth Center, The Blessing Room is preparing to pass out clothing to those in need from 3:00 – 6:00 pm on Thursdays.
Many opportunities to volunteer are available for you, under one roof, on the same day. You may schedule or just show up between 1:00-6:00 pm.
