Lazarus Summer Meals

The Lazarus Summer Meals program supports families living in the Lee Road hotels. Volunteers can sign up for Meal Preparation, Meal Pick-Up/Distribution, or Hotel Distribution Support Monday-Thursday, starting June 8 through July 16. Those interested in preparing meals should attend a 45-minute kitchen training session on June 5 at 11 am in the SMM kitchen. Those who received kitchen training previously do not need to attend.

We welcome Teen Volunteers. Teen Volunteers must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
