Weekly Community Meal

I had a great time, all staff members were so nice and accommodating, and put us right to work! I met some new people and had good conversations.

At this weeks community meal, my friends and I had the opportunity to help re-assemble old cardboard boxes that were used to fill with food that are distributed to families of many different sizes. A sticky note was placed on different sized boxes giving the number of people needing to be fed in each family. After assembling boxes, we helped to distribute the different donated foods into the boxes. More sweets were given to families with a-lot of kids because we thought that would make a big difference for the kiddos. It was a very rewarding experience and reminded me of how truly grateful I am when I have sufficient money to spend on groceries each week while others have close to none. I am glad I was able to make a small impact on the lives of those in need and want to continue attending the weekly community meal.

really fun and enjoying.

It was great making food and having some creative liberty

My experience was amazing being able to cook 150 meals for the Palouse community. I learned how to cook some pretty simple items that tasted great. It felt rewarding to do so and meet some very nice people. I actually want to go again, it was a long day but it was fun and it didn’t seem like work at all. My job was mainly on the oven watching the squash, desert and beans. It was awesome!
