Serve this Fall

Deliver Weekend Buddy Bags

2026-27 School Year
Hayes K-8

Help us deliver Weekend Buddy Bags to Hayes K-8 on the first and third Friday of the month! Volunteers will meet at IPC to load their vehicles with 175 bags from Room 104 and then deliver the bags to the Hayes K-8 lunchroom, where they will be distributed by school staff. Please reach out to Catherine Sager at csager@ipc-usa.org or (205) 933-3725 with any questions!

Deliver Food from PEER Market

2026-27 School Year
Hayes K-8 Neighborhood

IPC pays for fresh produce and frozen meat for 50 Hayes K-8 families twice a month. Some families have no transportation to pick up the food at the school. We will assist by delivering to the families who live close to the school. Each team should only have a few families to deliver to, and with a driver and co-pilot to help with navigation, it should take less than an hour! Please reach out to Evelyn Puckett at (205) 531-5565 with any questions.
