How You, your FAMILY or friends can help
Host a Fastpacs Food Drive!
We are continuously collecting the items that go into our weekly meal packs. You can host or coordinate a food drive of any size! Collected items can be delivered to our warehouse during our receiving hours (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursdays, 9 am-12 pm), or dropped off any time at one of several local spots. Get all the info on our Food Drive Resources page!
Join a Committee
Frisco Fastpacs has seven committees that report to the board of directors. Of those, five are comprised of community volunteers with a passion for different areas within the non-profit management structure. We are always looking for volunteers to join our committees, which are: Marketing, Governance, Special Events, Partner Relations, and Programs. To check out more on each committee, please CLICK HERE.
Community Pack or Prep Nights
Community Pack Nights are for individuals or families that come together to serve. CPN’s are usually the first Monday or Tuesday of the month where volunteers assemble the weekly meal packs. Age requirement is 8-12 years with parent or 13 years and up.
​
Community Prep Nights are for individuals and families as well. This volunteer opportunity is for groups of up to 8 people, where you will be sorting, shelving and pelleting groceries, filling tubs with grocery items and breaking down recycling boxes. All volunteer group members should be 13+ years of age.

Volunteer Drivers
Campus Deliveries: Delivering our weekend meal packs is a weekly, on-going opportunity throughout the school year. Drivers are assigned a "route" of schools to deliver to within FISD. All deliveries are picked up at the Frisco Fastpacs warehouse and delivered on Thursdays between 9 am-2 pm. Due to school holidays, some delivery dates may be adjusted.
​
Home Deliveries: Once a month home deliveries for high school students who signed up for this option. All 4 weekend meal bags will be delivered and dropped off on their porch. We can still use a few more drivers.
​
To sign up or inquire, please email us at volunteer@friscofastpacs.org.
Write "High Five" Cards
We provide cards with words of motivation, kindness and encouragement in each pack we deliver. You can help out by creating your own uplifting messages for the children we serve. To find out more information or how to drop off your High Five cards, please Click here http://highfivecards.friscofastpacs.volunteerhub.com/ You can email any questions to volunteer@friscofastpacs.org
​
Cards should be on 3x5 index cards, or thick construction paper. Creativity with decorations, stickers, etc. are encouraged.
At Home Snack Bag Packs
In addition to providing weekend meal packs to the children of Frisco ISD, Fastpacs also provides snack bags to the schools. These are paper type bags filled with a variety of 25-30 snack items for the counselors and teachers to use for children who may not have the means to bring a snack to school. To find out more information, please Click here https://friscofastpacs.volunteerhub.com/vv2/lp/snackbagpack.You can email any questions to volunteer@friscofastpacs.org
​
Please no peanut butter products as some schools have a peanut free campus and no snacks that require a spoon or fork.
Even when school is not in session, Fastpacs is preparing to feed hungry children.
It's a year-round job and we need you and your heart!
