What We Did!
• A group of people and myself from our FYE program at Valdosta State University went to volunteer at our local Second Harvest Food Bank.
• We basically sorted out food from what was good and what was bad.
• It was hard work, but it was worth it!

Good Will
• I volunteered at Good Will for a couple of hours own my own one day after class.
• Basically, they asked me to straighten up the shelves and the clothes.
• I also swept the floors and helped customers find things like prices.
• Volunteering at Good Will was actually fun! I liked looking around the store.
