Consider hosting a food drive, or some other form of donation day at your parish, run by the young adult community. The young adults can bring an energy to the event, and can even wait outside after the weekend Masses to encourage people to donate food or other goods. It can be held on a weekend afternoon, and there can be music and snacks for the volunteers to make it fun. This can simultaneously be a time for the young adult members to bond, and it can encourage giving to the needy through the parishioner’s’ donations and through the volunteers’ time and organization efforts.
