Why Go?: The Carnegie-Collier Rotary Club is looking for volunteers for its 5th Annual Meals of Hope Packing Event. Local groups, individuals, concerned citizens, corporate and church groups and Rotarians, are invited to volunteer to work on various jobs for most ages on the assembly line to package the nutritional, fortified macaroni and cheese casseroles. Six servings will be packed in each bag. These will be given free of charge to local food banks. The Rotary Club is asking volunteers to generously donate a $30 contribution in addition to their time to cover the expenses to buy, pack and deliver the 50,000 servings. For more information, call Mark Brilmyer at 412-608-2511.
