TeamUP 360

TeamUP 360 is our new volunteer program! We've combined several volunteer assignments into one daily shift from 8:30-12:00 pm. Volunteers will gather in the large classroom, located in the Education Center for Morning Motivation, a fun call-and-response exercise that our STEP students, volunteers, and staff participate in each day. Our theme for the day can be found on our website. Please make sure you know the theme for the day you’ll be volunteering, and come prepared with a song. You never know when you’ll be chosen! After morning motivation, volunteers will get started in our Member Share Grocery Program, where they will help clean, organize, and stock shelves.
