Service Opportunity: 9/11 Day Event Support Team

9/11 Day, the nonprofit that founded and leads the National September 11th Day of Service and Remembrance is preparing to commemorate the 25th anniversary of 9/11, and will be hosting a large-scale, high-profile food packing event at MetLife Stadium on September 9th.

*Volunteers must be 18+ to join on this opportunity*

Across the United States, approximately 50,000 volunteers in over 50 cities will gather together to pack 17 million meals, with 283,500 meals staying local to benefit the Community FoodBank of New Jersey. Their team is organizing the largest day of service in American history and we are looking for 145 volunteers to serve on our Event Support Team in Meadowlands!

Event Support Volunteers do not pack individual meals but instead are the support and backbone to the event's success, helping welcome participants, lead meal-packing teams, keep supplies moving, and ensure the event runs smoothly.

Volunteers must be 18+, and all positions are filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Food, water, and a t-shirt will be provided to all Event Support Volunteers.

Set-Up & Break-Down Crew – Help prepare and reset the event space
