1613 Blazer Kitchen Volunteer Shifts

I volunteered from 1-7. It was a great experience speaking with Lisa, the social worker at UAB Kitchen. I learned a lot about her background in social work and the changes UAB is working towards for people with their BSW who are wanting to work in a clinical setting. Also, I learned about Grace’s extensive background as well. I believe they all fit for UAB kitchen and have a lot of knowledge to offer! Furthermore, the only challenging part of Blazer Kitchen was the surge in students, faculty, and referred patients who needed to shop last minute. It was fast paced and it required volunteers to pack unexpected bags for the shoppers. Overall, my key takeaway would be interacting with others and learning about who UAB partners with to be able to serve their community.
