Your Year of Service

"So far I have really learned about the community building aspect that comes with serving those in the food insecurity area. As much as we are all about providing for those who need the food, we also create this sense of care and belonging to those who we serve. It’s really amazing to see how far these kinds of actions go, no matter how simple they may seem on the surface level"
