Have a large group that wants to help?
Snack Pack Drives We provide easily transportable food packs for young people experiencing homelessness who we engage during street canvassing or who visit our Outreach Center. We may also provide snack packs to youth in our other programs, when available and appropriate. You can organize your own drive off-site and assemble snack packs at your convenience or, depending on availability and the age/size of the group, we may be able to provide space for you to assemble bags on-site and get a brief tour of the agency. Volunteers provide all necessary snack pack materials.
Food Packs On days we don’t have a volunteer cooking meals, we like to provide our young people food packs with lunch to take with them when they leave the center. Lunches can include sandwiches, fruit, chips, protein bars, drinks, desserts, or any other snack items. They can be dropped off at Oasis between 9 am – 3 pm on Mondays or Wednesdays. Please contact Felisha Baquera to request an alternate time.
Hot Lunches We serve lunch most days at the Outreach Center, and we like to offer a few hot, homemade meals! We need volunteers to remotely prepare hot lunch and deliver it on Mondays and Fridays between 9:15 – 11 a.m. Volunteers do not serve lunch, but groups can work together to prepare remotely and drop off the food, which we can reheat on-site as necessary. Lunches can be anything you desire; casseroles, lasagna, taco bakes, and warmed up meat and cheese sliders have been big hits. Lunch should serve approximately 20 people, which can be divided into portions by volunteers during preparation or we can portion the meals on-site. Your group can sign up for an available day on the schedule at right!
Thank you for your interest in being part of the Oasis community!
