About the event
Join in to be a community Changemaker.
We're rallying our troops for The Jared Box Project's record-breaking pack-off — an attempt to pack 1,200 Jared Boxes in a single day, surpassing the current record of 1,000.
A Jared Box is a small box filled with toys, games and activities, given to a child in the hospital to bring some joy, distraction and comfort during treatment. The project started right here at OLV School in State College and has since gone national, while staying deeply rooted in this community and its ties to Penn State and regional hospitals.
We're aiming for 20 or more Changemaker women on this shift. Come as you are, and bring friends and family — all are welcome.
Free to attend. The Jared Box Project's public event runs 11 AM – 2 PM; our crew stays to 4 to finish the count and help pack up.
