Capital Programs - Public Safety

Our Westside Community Center is working again with Family Life Center/New Braunfels Foodbank to hold a Mega-Food Distribution event on Thursday, November 19th at the host site, Tree of Life Church. This will be very similar to April’s event. Thank you to everyone who volunteered for that very successful event!

You are welcome (and encouraged!) to volunteer for the event in November. Since almost everyone is back to work now, we ask that you get approval from your supervisor or Director so that workloads and schedules can be coordinated. Ultimately it is up to each Director to determine if department schedules and priorities will allow staff to be away for a portion of the day.

Once again, the Tree of Life Church will be the site for this distribution event on Thursday, November 19th. Volunteers are needed for both November 18 to help prepare, and the 19th for food distribution. Information and a link to sign up is as follows:

• Wednesday, November 18th at Tree of Life 9:00am-1:00pm. This is to package the dried goods for the Thanksgiving boxes, no clients on site that day. Link to register: https://sforce.co/2JiSocl. 
• Thursday, November 19th at Tree of Life 8:00am-12:00pm (actual distribution day). This will include packaging for normal distribution, plus the turkey distribution cold items. Link to register: https://sforce.co/2HCm57S.
