Help Us Give Back to the Community |
The PTMBA Association would like to begin 2021 by giving back to the local community, so we are partnering with the Capital Area Food Bank to raise $1,000!
The Capital Area Food Bank is one of the largest hunger-fighting organizations in DC, and they work with many local community partners to deliver nutritious meals directly to those in need. By donating just $1, the Capital Area Food Bank is able to supply two meals, whether that be via a local soup kitchen, a women's shelter, or a senior facility.
DC Area Students: If you feel comfortable volunteering in-person (inside), please sign up to pack and sort donations at the Capital Area Food Bank DC Warehouse on Monday, February 15th. Proper COVID precautions will be in place. Please follow the link to sign up: https://forms.gle/eig9LVBrwMBoSJCr7. Additional information will be distributed to those who sign up.
Baltimore Area Students: If you feel comfortable volunteering in person (outside), please sign up to garden, harvest, and seed at the Strength to Love Farm on February 15th. This is an outdoor event and COVID precautions will be in place. Please follow the link to sign up: https://forms.gle/iz1QdfrjkFVZcphs7. Additional information will be distributed to those who sign up.
