Brunch & Backpack Volunteer Social

Connect, Engage, and Serve with Serve & Jam at our August Volunteer Social. Kick off the school year with heart and community! Join us for Brunch & Backpacks, a volunteer social where we enjoy good food and even better company—all while collecting backpacks and school supplies for kids in need. Come sip, serve, and support a brighter future for local students. Bring a clear backpack or school supplies and let’s give back in style!

🧡 This is a free event, but to attend, we ask that each guest brings a minimum of $25 worth of new school supplies to donate. Brunch is at your own expense—just grab your favorite dish and dine with us as we give back in a fun and meaningful way.
