Giving Thanks to Your Community

Thanksgiving is the time of year for football, delicious homemade goodies, and leaf peeping. It is also a time of year to give back to the community and help those who aren’t as fortunate as us. Many churches organize food packages to be delivered to those who cannot afford a Thanksgiving spread of their own. There are many variables that come into play, not the least of which is planning the routes for delivery.

Recruiting Volunteers

Volunteers are generally happy to help out for events like this, however it is a holiday and people want to make it to their families’ dinner table. In order to recruit as many volunteers as possible, be sure to let them know the goal will be to get them home quickly and safely. Being organized is the key to getting the vehicles packed quickly, and hopefully with enough volunteers, each person will only have to do 4-5 deliveries.

Another point to make when gathering volunteers is to give them easy access to routes that allow for time to deliver the Thanksgiving dinner package, and make it an efficient driving experience.
