Second Harvest Food Bank Family Thanksgiving Holiday Food Sort

About this adventure

Instill values of gratitude, empathy, and community service with a hands-on family volunteering shift at Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida during Thanksgiving week. Families work together in a bright, clean, climate-controlled volunteer center to inspect, sort, and box non-perishable holiday staples—such as sweet potatoes, green beans, stuffing mix, and cranberry sauce—for distribution to hundreds of partner feeding programs across Central Florida. Each volunteer session begins with an inspiring orientation on how hunger relief works in our region, followed by upbeat music and energetic team-packing challenges suitable for youth ages 10 and older accompanied by adult caregivers. The facility provides water stations, accessible restrooms, lockers, and ample free parking.
