Default Places to volunteer on Christmas
My husband and I just moved to OKC a couple of months ago. Does anyone know of a place that needs volunteers to serve Christmas dinner?
Thank you.

We don't live in OKC anymore but we hope the Red Andrews Dinner is still ongoing. It's been around since the 1940's.
I found this info for the United Way Volunteer Center

This site has helped me find a number of volunteer opportunities.

Thank you.
Last year we volunteered at the Red Andrews Dinner at the Cox Center in OKC. Don't bother calling them or waiting for a return call. You are asked to show up and just start helping. When we arrived last year we thought it was a clustered mess, but within minutes of opening the doors to the public, everythign smoothed out and was a perfectly oiled machine. We couldn't believe how many people showed up, how long the lines were and how long people were willing to wait. It was a good experience and much better than sitting around the house.
