February volunteer night at the foodbank

Our February volunteer night had a great turn-out. Thank you Joe, Nathan, Sohail, Arjun and Mai for your two hours of volunteering. There were many volunteers besides ourselves that night and so we were able to put together quite a formidable number of food hampers for the needy. At the end of the night we were told we had provided food for 690 people!
It's solid work for the time we are there and afterwards, I find it feels just amazing to know I've helped those in need this way. Volunteer work is giving to others while giving to one's own soul, I think.

I look forward to the next one and hope we can have another fantastic turn-out!
