Teen Volunteer Project: Grocery Pack with We Are Family

Calendar Happens On May 31, 2026

Description

Join the Youth Action Institute as we celebrate our final event of the school year before transitioning to our summer programming! We’ll be closing down the EDCJCC parking lot for a large-scale service project in partnership with We Are Family, which supports senior citizens who are choosing to age in place across Washington, DC. Volunteers will pack groceries for clients.

This project is open to volunteers ages 11-18 and is eligible for 1.5 SSL hours.

Free to attend, but advance RSVP is required.

If you have any questions, please contact Lyssa at ajellenik@edcjcc.org.


Student participation in this service project is at the discretion of the student’s parent/guardian and must be completed outside of school hours in a public space under direct supervision of the nonprofit organization. The nonprofit organization is responsible for maintaining student safety. Parents/guardians should contact the nonprofit directly with any questions and/or concerns.
