The unemployment rate in Washington State as of May 2010 was 9.1%, and while this is slightly lower than the national average, there are still a great number of people going hungry. You can help! On Saturday, February 26th, the Saturday before the MVP Summit, GeekGive is organizing volunteers to work with Northwest Harvest in the Seattle Area. Join MVPs from around the world in this unique opportunity to give back to the community, network with your peers, and enjoy the Seattle area a bit more.

Sponsors:

As an added incentive, participants will receive an invite to Chez Neward 2011, the crème de la crème of MVP Summit parties hosted by Ted Neward.

We will be working at the Northwest Harvest warehouse in Kent, WA.

The warehouse address is:
