The Dallas Texas Exes are partnering with Tango Tab’s Feed the City for our service project, putting together sacked lunches for people in need around DFW.

Sign up now to help us get an accurate headcount of those participating with us in Project Worldwide and so we can try to save enough space for us to sit together!

You’re welcome to donate the following items for the lunches, however the Dallas Texas Exes will be donating a large amount of goods on behalf of our volunteers.

  • Sliced bread
  • Deli meat (turkey, chicken, or ham – no meat from deli counter)
  • Sliced cheese (prepackaged)
  • Yellow mustard (no spicy mustard or mayo)
  • Large bags of chips
  • Tangerines (ex. Halos or Cuties)
  • Ziploc sandwich bags

Don’t forget to wear Burnt Orange!! This event is public, so we’d like to try to all sit together and take a group photo afterwards.
