Meals from the Heartland

I enjoyed volunteering last week for Meals from the Heartland. I got placed in a group of 10. We traded off throughout our shift, changing jobs to give us all different experiences with the routine. Our group packaged 720 meals in our 2 hour shift. Pretty amazing. I enjoyed seeing all of the volunteers also. Women coming straight from work, standing on the hard cement floor in heels or men wearing white shirts and ties; high school football players wearing their team jerseys; and 8 and 1/2 month pregnant mothers-to-be. Quite a show of support.
