Student volunteers needed to serve meals at emergency shelter
The Montgomery County Coalition is looking for students to help with our meal program at our Home Builder’s Care Assessment Center (formerly known as the Men’s Emergency Shelter) located off of Gude Drive in Rockville. We are currently serving over 200 men, 3 meals a day, everyday. A great Spring Break project; SSL hours are available for this activity. Our meal program guidelines can be found on our website at: http://www.mcch.net/howtohelp/programneeds.html.
To learn more about how this program works, please view this inspirational article about students from Winston Churchill High School. The students themselves have coordinated and prepared several meals for our shelter. The story can be read on the Gazette website by following the link below: http://www.gazette.net/stories/03032010/montsch184002_32547.php. Could you lead our next student group? Other ways to help:
- Hold a collection drive for gift cards, sample sized toiletries, paper goods, or household cleaning supplies. All collection drives must be pre-arranged.
- Volunteer for our annual Shelter Walk’n’Roll on May 2nd at 1:00pm in Rockville Town Center.
