I volunteered for a 4 hour shift at our local food bank on Friday. My
best friend, Lynn, told me that they had a current recruiting program
for that. 4 hours equaled a free turkey box for Thanksgiving. :-) I
don't personally need it, but I know someone that does and will give it
to them.

It was very educational and a lot of fun. I'm considering doing it more
often, maybe once per week on Fridays.

Their shelves and cooler were packed! Katie, the co-director, said that
prior to Hurricane Ike, the shelves were almost bare. The shelves on
Friday were packed and many more donations came in while I was there...

It was awesome. :-)

If anyone here is considering doing volunteer work, I highly recommend
it...
