On the first Thursday of every month Montevallo’s boys and girls club host a Food Bank, Community Food Bank of Central Alabama. They are a food distribution center located in Birmingham Alabama distributing food to over 230 nonprofits in the community. It is a great opportunity to get volunteer hours, meet new people, and get involved in your community. Beginning at 8:00 a.m volunteers unload the truck and get ready to pass out all of the pantry boxes and produce they can .
I personally have volunteered many times at the food bank. There is always new people to meet with smiling faces and happy spirits. It is so fulfilling knowing I am helping people in need. After being there you make connections with those you meet and look forward to seeing them every month. If you have never been a part of the food bank I cannot recommend it enough !
