Tips
Ask for food in disposable pans so nothing needs to be returned to the family.
Ask for food an hour before the luncheon so it can be set out.
Put only what helpers need in the description. People can leave notes with what they’re bringing.
Pitch In Now doesn’t send reminder emails yet, so plan to text the group a day or two before.
People claim items, not times. There are no time slots or shifts yet.
