ACE and CAPI Partnership: Volunteers Needed
ACE (Apida Community and Empowerment) program is partnering with CAPI (Communities Advancing Prosperity for Immigrants) Food Shelf to support local families and strengthen the community.
Each week, CAPI’s Food Shelf helps more than 130 families access nourishing, culturally rich foods to put on their tables. By volunteering, students will support this important work while learning about food access, community care, and the role culturally meaningful foods play in family life. This experience reflects ACE’s commitment to service, making positive impact, and cultural connection.
Register to volunteer with ACE at the CAPI Food Shelf on Thursday, November 12, 12:30– 4:30 p.m.
