Be A Champion Inc. is seeking workers and volunteers to help distribute meals in Richardson ISD as part of its Summer Food Service Program. While the weekly distributions are underway at eight RISD campuses, Director of Program Partnerships Stephanie Sheppard said the organization would like to have two to three people at each site.
“Per campus, we'd like to have a site coordinator and two program staff [members] depending on the meal volume," Sheppard said. "But if we can get at least two people [for] each campus, that would be great.”
Be A Champion distributes meals each Thursday from 1:30-3:30 p.m. at White Rock Elementary, Forest Lane Academy, Richland Elementary, Richardson Heights Elementary, Prestonwood Elementary and Big Springs Elementary, as well as 1-3 p.m. at RISD Academy and Berkner High.
“We serve Saturday and Sunday meals for the district,” Sheppard said. “And it's not just for the district students. If there's other families outside of the district that get information about our program, they can come too, as long as supplies last.”
