Denton ISD needs volunteers on Wednesdays to deliver a week’s worth of food to students. Volunteers will arrive at one of two locations in their cars and will be met by nurses to complete the questionnaire and have their temperatures taken. Once cleared, volunteers for Hickory Creek will be loading food onto a bus to deliver from a bus stop, similar to in the past. Those for Pecan Creek, once cleared, you will pop your trunks and Child Nutrition staff will place “super bundles” of food in your cars. You’ll be given a list of addresses with the number of meals to take to each home. We’re trying to keep it to about 20 stops per volunteer. The “super bundle” contains 2 bags of food per student, one shelf-stable and the other is fridge/freezer food. One household could potentially have several students and super bundles to deliver to it. We’re hoping the food will be delivered between 10:30 a.m. and 12 p.m., once volunteers get cleared and cars loaded at the campuses.
Volunteers must be able to comply with the following:
Be under the age of 65.
Not have any underlying health conditions (this is a question nurses will ask).
If you are aware of anyone in their household who could be or is sick, they must not volunteer.
Have your temperature taken on-site.
Wear gloves, provided by Child Nutrition.
Wear a mask, must bring one or request one ahead of time from martin@dentonisd.org.
Wear a hat, if you have one.
If you meet the above requirements, you can sign up for a shift by clicking here. Once you’ve signed up and all shifts are filled, Courtney Martin will be sending specific details by Tuesday evening.
