I
was a little excited and apprehensive about volunteering at the Tarrant County
Food Bank. I had never volunteered at a food bank; but I had volunteered
at a place where they prepare boxes of food for people and give them away. Once
I got there I was overwhelmed with the amount of food and people helping.
It was great to see all of the willing to come out on a Saturday and pay it
forward. Once we got in the motion of volunteering, it felt so good. I was a
little concerned about the quality of the food; but I am slightly germ-phobic. It was still a good experience. It's crazy to see how much food that
stores throw away and I am so grateful for places like that to pull out the
good stuff and give back to the community. I felt closer to my peers
especially when we all discovered our musical talent. I'd do it again!
