Volunteers Needed to Assemble “To Go” Bags
Each year on the first Sunday in February, Tucker First has provided soup and sandwiches and served at the Trinity Table in Downtown Atlanta. This year, due to COVID restrictions, Trinity Table had to change their setup and switch to "To Go" bags only. No soup and no inside serving.
Because of these restrictions, Tucker First has been tasked with providing 400 "To Go" bags to Trinity Kitchen. Ten volunteers are needed on Saturday, February 6 from 10:00 am - 12:00 noon in the Activities Center to assemble 400 "To Go" bags. Please wear your masks and observe the COVID-19 guidelines when participating in this mission project. If you are interested in helping with this mission, please contact Becky Burnett at rsb1950@gmail.com.
