About this Event
Calling Epic 8th-12th Grade Students,
Are you looking for an amazing opportunity to volunteer in Oklahoma City? Come join Epic Charter Schools on February 4th as we head to the Infant Crisis Services nonprofit organization, where we will be hosting a community service opportunity for our Epic students who are in 8th-12th grade! If you are a student who needs service hours/credit for a club or program, this opportunity will help fulfill your hours.
This location only has space for our student volunteers and a few parents; therefore, we ask that, if possible, parents wait in the waiting room, which is right by the volunteer room. Younger siblings will also need to wait in the waiting room with a parent. Looking for more information about this location? Check out their website at the bottom of this page.

What to Expect:
- Volunteers will have the opportunity to create care packages for expecting mothers and babies by packaging diaper packs, packaging food sacks & boxes, or labeling formulas, depending on the inventory that day.

- To access the permission slip online: Student Permission Slip. You have three options to submit the permission slip:

- Email the completed form to [email protected] before the event.
- Please choose the option that works best for you. Let us know if you have any questions!*Students who are of driving age may come to this event without their guardian, but must have a permission slip filled out and turned in on the day of the event.
Students: Do not use your Epic student email address to register for this event, as Epic student email accounts cannot receive emails from Eventbrite. Therefore, you will need to provide an alternative email address where you can receive the registration confirmation and all updates that are sent about this event.
Where to meet & check in: Upon arrival, please check in with an Epic Family Engagement staff member who will be in Epic gear and located inside the Volunteer entrance at the back of the building. We’d also love to see you in your Epic gear!

CLOTHING & SUPPLIES RECOMMENDED:
- All volunteers must wear closed-toed shoes for safety precautions. Individuals wearing flip-flops, sandals, or any shoes where toes are exposed will be unable to volunteer.
POLICIES:
Students cannot be dropped off to attend a field trip without a parent unless they are of driving age and drive themselves.
You will register using Eventbrite, which will hold your spot for the community service as a reservation. This enables the school and the location to staff and plan appropriately. Our community service opportunities do have a maximum capacity. Therefore, we ask that when registering your students, you only register Epic-enrolled 8th through 12th-grade students so that the spots are filled by our Epic students.
Pathways Students: Pathways students may only participate when attending with their own enrolled Epic child. Please register as a guest, not as a student, since student reservations are for students age 18 and under only.
MEDIA POLICY: This is a public event, and photographs and/or video may be taken during the activity. If you prefer your student not to have a photograph or video taken, please let our Epic Family Engagement staff know during check-in.
Service Animals: Due to the packing of food supplies, this location does not allow for service animals in the volunteer work area.
Sensory Bags: Sensory bags will be available to check out for use at this event. Upon arrival, see any Epic Family Engagement team member to check a bag out and return all sensory bags to an Epic Family Engagement team member before leaving the event.
Sign Language Services: To request a sign language interpreter for an Epic student at this event, please use this link: ASL Request Link. Requests must be submitted at least 72 hours in advance of the event. The link can also be found on the Epic under the About tab → Requests & Forms.
Inclement Weather Plan: If we have inclement weather, we will send out communication by email through Eventbrite to let you know if the event has been canceled.
CANCELLATIONS: How do I cancel my reservation? To cancel the reservation and allow other students to attend in those spots, you will go to the email sent from Eventbrite with the subject line: Your Tickets for the Infant Crisis Services Community Service. Then scroll to the bottom of the email and click the words "View and Manage your online order." This will open up spots for other families and is very important, as the location needs accurate numbers before we arrive.
