Today we had an amazing day volunteering at Loaves & Fishes Soup Kitchen in Martinez. The folks from Loaves & Fishes were thrilled to see a group of teenage boys, as most of their volunteers come from NCL (all girls). The four teenage boys who volunteered will attend San Ramon and Monte Vista high schools in the fall so it was a great chance for them to see the types of community service they can do when they attend high school in the upcoming year. The boys were great sports and did everything from: opening canned food, preparing the main dish, getting chairs ready, serving about 200 folks that came for lunch, doing dishes and mopping floors at the end of the day. It was great for them to be able to serve local folks in need and walk away richer from the experience.
