Community Resource Center Needs Volunteers for Food Basket Packing

Just because Christmas is over doesn’t mean the act of giving is.

Back in December, Encinitas Patch told you about the desperate over at Community Resource Center (CRC). The service and assistance-providing center is asking for help again — and this time, they’re .

CRC wasn’t able to provide their annual holiday food baskets to 600 households this past December. Thanks to a successful appeal started by the Jewish Community Foundation, those households are now able to receive some winter baskets filled with food to feed the hungry families.

As great as this news is, the CRC needs help packing up the food baskets. That’s where you come in. Volunteers are encouraged to help pack the boxed with food and tape them up so they can get sent out. 

If you’re interested in helping out the CRC, which gives back to graciously to the community, you can sign up one or both days they need volunteers: Saturday, Jan. 21 and Jan. 28. The volunteers will work just noon to 3 p.m. and everyone can sign up for their preferred days (or both!) online by clicking here.

Those looking for additional information or that have any questions can email scolby@crcncc.org or call 760-230-6305.
