Bethany Volunteered at Food Closet July 29, 2024

Five Bethany members showed up at the church Food Closet volunteer morning on July 29 to lend a hand. They prepared products for packaging, filled bags and boxes with produce and canned goods, helped unload the donation trucks, and transported food to clients’ cars for them.

On this day, about 300 people received food at the South Sacramento Interfaith Partnership Food Closet, which is located at Bethany.

Many thanks to volunteers Cindy Alei, Peter Baird, Marcie Hettenbach, Cathy Sapunor and Manh Van Ong. Click here to see photos!

Bethany has pledged to provide at least five volunteers on every fifth Monday. “Five on the fifth”—easy to remember and easy to participate!

The next Food Closet volunteer morning will be Monday, September 30. But you needn’t wait ‘til then to help. Volunteers are needed five days a week. Contact Cathy Sapunor to schedule an orientation and “try it out” morning to see if this kind of volunteer work is something you enjoy.
