Volunteer with Feeding Tampa Bay - Earn Community Service
Hours!
Make a difference in your community while earning
community service hours and working toward your Girl Scout Community
Service Bar!
During this hands-on event, participants
will volunteer inside Feeding Tampa Bay's warehouse to help inspect
perishable and non-perishable food items for expiration dates and
quality. Once inspected, the good food will be packaged into bags or
boxes for distribution to local families in need.
This is
a great opportunity to give back, learn about food insecurity in our
region, and be part of the solution alongside your fellow Girl Scouts
and community members.
All participating Girl Scouts will
also receive a Community Service Patch.
Please
Note:
This event can count toward the Girl Scout Community
Service Bar for Cadettes, Seniors, and Ambassadors. To earn the bar,
girls must complete 20 hours of community service.

process does not guarantee your spot in the program due to the two to
three days of processing time. To ensure your spot is secured at the

You will be asked to provide the event name, attendees' name(s), and
the amount of credits you'd like to apply.
