9/11 Day needs 5,000+ staff volunteers to help lead our community meal pack events.

On Thursday, September 11, 2025, 9/11 Day will host community meal packing events in 26 cities across the country. In total, more than 30,000 volunteers will gather to assemble 9 million meals for those at risk of hunger in their local communities.

Our “Support Staff” volunteers help make sure everything runs smoothly, everyone has a great time, and that all our meals get packed and delivered to where they will do the most good. Roles include:

• Table Captains: As a Table Captain, you will take charge of one or two assembly lines, guiding a team of Meal Pack volunteers. You will train volunteers as they arrive, troubleshoot, answer questions throughout the shift, and keep energy levels and spirits high!


• Heavy Lifters/Runners: As a Heavy Lifter, you will play a vital role in maintaining a steady flow of supplies at each packing station, ensuring the meal-packing process runs smoothly and efficiently. Before volunteering for this role, it is very important to note that this role requires that you can lift and carry 50 lbs repeatedly for about 90 minutes.


• Hospitality & Registration Teams: As a member of the Hospitality & Registration Teams, you will play a key role in welcoming, checking in, directing and assisting Meal Pack Volunteers and/or Support Staff as they arrive at the event, answering questions and troubleshooting challenges.


• Set Up and Break Down Support: Help get the room ready pre-event, or to clean up post-event.
  

The commitment.

• One-hour training session via Zoom, scheduled a week before the event.
• Roughly 4 hours on the day of the event. Shift times may vary depending on the city.
