Armentrout Family Chai for Charity: Assembly | Mar 5th
“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.”
Meet Chai for Charity
Chai's mission is to inspire people to give in creative ways. Our belief is that everyone has something to give, regardless of where they are in life (20yo-me had no money, but lots of time; 40yo-me has no time, but some money). We work with hosts (like the Armentrout family, below) to gather their community to learn about, and invest in, local causes that matter to them. This event aims to model giving to donors of all generations by helping them invest goods and time. - Natasha, Founder of Chai for Charity
Meet your hosts: The Armentrout Family
Amber, Patrick, Samuel and Wallace are so excited for you to join them to help make kids snack bags! Community Food Share is a staple of the Northern Colorado fight against food insecurity, a problem our family has been passionate about for years. They distribute millions of pounds of food each year to local families, as well as raising education and awareness in our community. Over the years we have been involved via food drives, volunteer days and spreading awareness. We are so excited to share their mission with you and hope you'll join us to make 2000 bags for local kids!

Meet our nonprofit
Join us to assemble 2,000 snack bags for kids who experience food insecurity in our community. The bags will be donated to a Louisville-based nonprofit: Community Food Share whose mission is to fight hunger in Boulder and Broomfield Counties by providing access to fresh, nutritious food through local partners and its onsite and mobile pantries. They will get our snack bags to kids in the community who need them!
Your task
Join us in-person in Lafayette, CO (address provided later) to assemble snack bags for school-aged kids, many of whom may be on free or reduced lunches at school. Offering these nutritious, shelf-stable snack bags ensures that kids don’t go hungry at school and have the energy to do the important work of playing, learning and chasing each other around the playground. We will setup an assembly line to fill sandwich bags with all of the items and our goal is to assemble 1,000 kits. See photos from a Chai: Assembly to get an idea of what to expect.
