Service Opportunity – Northgate Hy-Vee
Northgate Hy-Vee is building a fundraising campaign for JDRF (formerly know as Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) and their “One Walk” to help find the cure for Type 1 Diabetes. This campaign will last from April 1st to May 1st. They are looking for students who are in need/want volunteer hours. They need students who would simply staff JDRF tables in their Hy-Vee store for allotted shifts where they would educate people about JDRF, why they are raising money to find a cure, sell root beer floats, JDRF shoes, and JDRF bars. It should be a fun volunteer experience and you can do it with friends! Also, if any students want to join the Hy-Vee team for the JDRF “One Walk” on May 5th at BlackHawk College you are more than welcome to! This would be an excellent experience for any student, but especially those pursuing a career in the health and wellness field. If you are interested, please contact: Katie Lashier, RD, LD at klashier@hy-vee.com
