Food Bank

This week I decided I wanted to help collect food for the food bank.  I learned about why we have food banks for people and families who don't always have enough to eat and I wanted to do something.  I made this poster, then put it in all of the mailboxes on my street.  On Wednesday, Mom and I went around and collected any food items people wanted to donate.  We made little thank you cards to take with us to give out, too.

I was so proud of myself and glad that we took the wagon.  On our street only, I collected 53 items to donate.  Mom and I took the items to a drop-off container at the library and we had to make 3 trips from the car, just to get all the food unloaded.  It felt great to know I was helping out.
