Please note this opportunity does not take place at The Stewpot. Please feel free to make the snack bags on your own and upon completion, reach out to The Stewpot to coordinate a drop off time.
Snack Bags are gallon size ziploc bags or drawstring backpacks filled with nourishing snacks for hungry clients. Suggested items include:
- Bottle of water
- Electrolyte packet(s)
- Soft cereal bar
- Tuna Packets
- Pop top vienna sausages
- Individual cup of peanut butter
- An encouraging note (optional)
You do not have to follow this list exactly but everything must be prepackaged and ready to eat. No homemade items. Please keep in mind that many of our clients have dental issues making it difficult to eat hard foods such as nuts. Please do not include items that need a can opener or other device to open. Thank you for your support and partnership. We appreciate you!
We suggest making at least 25 bags when you donate. You must arrange a dropoff with at least 2-4 business day's notice and please email volunteer@thestewpot.org to coordinate.
Need Service Hours for school, court, an organization, etc.? We offer 2 service hours for 25 snack bags. We do suggest you make sure your school, court, or organization allows hours for in-kind donations.
