You're Invited to Our Block Party!

Volunteer

This summer we are hosting our 2nd neighborhood Block Party on Friday July 10th from 12pm-4pm. The event will take place right in front of our Lake City Food Bank location.

This block party is a great opportunity for the community to come together and we're expecting over 400 attendees throughout the day. We're asking local businesses and organizations to provide music, entertainment, food, and resources. This event will be open to all and all food will be FREE of charge to the public. North Helpline will also be providing free popcorn, snow cones, and produce regardless of food bank membership.

We had an incredible turn out last year and need your help to make this new tradition fun and successful for 2026. Interested in getting involved? Email frontdesk@northhelpline.org
