Burrito Project: Jan 2026

Kick off the new year with service and community! After a successful shift in our schedule last month, we’ve decided to stick with our 4:00 PM start time. It worked beautifully for our volunteers and our neighbors downtown, so we’re keeping the momentum going.This month’s project will take place on Tuesday, January 27, 2026.

Event Details

• When: Tuesday, January 27th
• Time: 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM
• Where: Common Room at First UU San Diego (298 W Arbor Dr, San Diego, CA 92103)

What to Expect (The Itinerary)
Whether you can stay for the whole evening or just help with the prep, every hand makes a difference. You are welcome to participate in the preparation, the distribution, or both!

• 4:00 PM | Assembly: We gather in the Common Room to assemble burritos. This involves scooping beans, rice, and corn into warmed tortillas, wrapping them, and bagging them with two cold waters.
• 5:00 PM | Distribution: Once we’ve cleaned our workspace, we load up the van and caravan downtown to distribute the fresh meals to our neighbors.
• 7:00 PM | Return: We will return to the Hillcrest campus by 7:00 PM at the latest.

Note for Families: Children are more than welcome to support this project under the direct care of a guardian. It is a wonderful, hands-on way for families to serve the community together.
