LUNCHES
Habitat for Humanity has a long-standing tradition that Habitat volunteers will be provided a meal while working on the job site.
Responsibilities:
* Buy the food or collect donations to
buy it (There is an average of 15 people each
Saturday)
* Make the meal
* Bring it to the site (You will probably want to arrive around 11:30)
* Set up, serve, and clean up
Guidelines:
We invite you to use your creativity
in this area. Meals should be responsive to the weather (cold in the
summer, warm in the winter).
A typical meal might include:
* Ready made sandwiches, casseroles,
pastas or finger foods (i.e. subs, sloppy joes, pizza,
chicken, hamburgers or hotdogs). Don't forget condiments.
* Soup (winter)
* Chips (individually wrapped)
* Fresh fruit (apples, bananas, pears, etc.)
* Dessert (cookies, brownies, etc.)
* Sodas and juices (individual containers)
Bring to the site:
* Table(s) on which to serve the food
* Paper products (plates, napkins,
plastic ware, cups). The plates should be sturdy since the
volunteers have to eat from their laps.
* Large plastic garbage bags.
* All trash (soda cans should be recycled) must be removed from the site when you leave.
You should arrive at the site at 11:30 a.m. to allow time to get set up for a Noon Lunch
* Drive up to site, ask for volunteers to help unload your car
* Find the Devotions Coordinator or
designated person responsible to say grace or a meal time
prayer
* Keep in mind that the workers will
have to eat from their laps. There are no tables, chairs,
etc. at the site.
A teacher or parent should be involved as a supervisor if the group is under 18:
Providing lunch is an important contribution toward building a Habitat home.
Please feel free to contact the Volunteer Coordinator @ (513) 621-4147 x 220 to assist in this effort or for any further information.
