Get Involved

This is one of the simplest ways to help out our cause. We believe the best way for our initiatives to be successful is for the community to actively get involved. This is an easy and efficient way of contributing to the great work we do at Blooming Prairie Backpack Program. Get in touch with any questions about how you can Volunteer Your Time today.

​

During the school year we are in need of volunteer drivers who pick up the food at St. Columbanus Parish and drive it to the Blooming Prairie Elementary on Wednesday evenings.  This is an integral part of helping our Backpack Program thrive.  Requirements include the ability to drive your vehicle to the packing location and have a big enough vehicle to hold 6 plastic totes loaded with bags of food.  When food is unloaded at the Blooming Prairie Elementary School, a cart is available to help move the totes into the Elementary Conference room.  

​

If being a volunteer driver works for you, please email our coordinator at bpbackpackprogram@gmail.com

Often throughout the school year our program is in need of volunteer packers. It takes about 20-30 minutes to pack 90+ bags. Please reach out if this is a volunteer opportunity for you, your group and more.
