Calling ALL Epic STAFF & STUDENTS...

First-ever, STAFF & STUDENT volunteer day. Join us as Epic Charter Schools heads to the Regional Food Bank in Oklahoma City for a day of giving back to our community. Volunteers like you are essential to The Regional Food Bank's vision of an Oklahoma where no one goes hungry. Through this on-site volunteer experience, volunteers like you sort, pack, and prepare food for a variety of Regional Food Bank Programs. If you are a student looking for service hours/credit, this opportunity will help fulfill your hours.
