For this volunteer service, I helped at LifeSource with two things. The first thing was for the first hour we packaged up USDA food that they give out. We put certain types of canned and dry food in certain bags according to the specific type, and then tied the bags up. For the last hour, when the kids arrived we helped with running the after-school program and mainly just played games as it was "fun Friday". The people who benefitted from my experience was those who use LifeSource for food and then also the elementary and middle school children at LifeSource who go their for after-school care. I took away from this experience that it's important to always help out in your community, as not everyone has the same experiences in day to day life.

Voluntereed with the race as a race official. Helped direct runners and provide water throughout the 10k and 5k race. Those who beneffited from my service would be particpants and staff in the 5k and 10k race, as I helped runners find the correct route and then helped set up the water station as well. From this experience, I took away that is great to give back to my community and help the passion of others. Many love running, and I am glad I was able to help them out in their 5k or 10k race!
