    Interested in making sandwiches for our clients who are going to work? Please follow the below guidelines to keep sandwiches in the best condition.
    Please email us if you are interested in doing more than 100 sandwiches at Volunteer@unionshelter.org.


    All:
    -Do not cut sandwiches.
    -Individually bag sandwiches in ziplocs.
    -Use fully sealing zippered bags, don’t use the fold over bags. This prevents the sandwiches from drying out.
    -Pack the sandwiches back in the loaf bag and tie shut.

    Lunchmeat:
    -Bread, Lunchmeat, Cheese
    -Leave condiments off. That keeps sandwiches from getting soggy.
    -Label with type of meat. We have some people who do not eat pork. We prefer turkey, chicken, beef bologna sandwiches for this reason.

    Peanut Butter and Jelly:
    -Bread, Peanut Butter, Jelly
    -Put a small layer of peanut butter on both sides then jelly in the middle. That keeps sandwiches from getting soggy.
