The Life House is an Omaha diaper bank and neighborhood food pantry. They provide diapers and food to families in Omaha that may not be able to afford these necessary resources. They need volunteers to help wrap and package diapers for distribution.

This volunteer activity is in a warehouse setting. Please wear closed toe shoes. We require that all volunteers wear masks and we are set up at each event to allow for social distancing.
  • Time: 9am-noon
  • Number of Volunteers: 30
  • Ages: 12 years old and up (youth must be accompanied by an adult volunteer)
