Individual Volunteers
While all of our key positions are currently staffed with volunteers, we will occasionally put out a call for volunteers on Facebook to help us at events or to replace key staff volunteer positions.
Volunteering to Pack the Bags
Limited to groups of 10 or more
If you are a non-profit group of 10 or more people (children must be over 10) that would like to get on the waiting list to pack the bags for one session during the school year, please fill out the form below and submit it to us.
Please note that we often have our calendar booked a year in advance, so don’t be surprised if you don’t hear back from us soon. We pack the bags on Wednesdays between 3:30 and 5:30 pm during the school year.
Hosting a Fundraiser
Businesses, churches, clubs and individuals have helped us by hosting a fundraiser for us. If you are interested in hosting a fundraiser, please contact Deb Peake at 517-927-9008 or at blessingsinabackpackgl@gmail.com with your idea so that we can promote the fundraiser on our Facebook page.
