I brought some soup cans to one of the blue houses by West Village for people who need food! I love soup when it gets super cold outside, and I figured others might enjoy that too!

I volunteered at my church for their early morning Sunday service with the nursery. I went with a few of my friends and we looked after kids ranging from newborns to around 5 years old while their parents attended the church service. I really enjoyed getting the chance to spend time with kids and helping out the church community!

I went with Josie H and some of the other members of Alpha Phi to The Jordan House in West Des Moines and decorated the house for Christmas. I had so much fun getting the chance to learn more about the history in the Des Moines area and helping out put up decorations in preparation for their holiday special events!

I went with a friend of mine to Meals for the Heartland from 1-3 and we helped pack meals to be shipped off. I had a great time and was glad to be able to help those who don't have enough food or a constant source of food.

I volunteered at the Meals on Wheels Hydroponic Farm with my roommate and we harvested and recovered 3 pounds of lettuce. I loved it and liked that it was a different way to volunteer. It was super interesting to learn about their process and get the chance to help.

We harvested and recovered 3 pounds of lettuce. I absolutely loved it and liked that it was a different way to volunteer.

I volunteered for Drake Food Recovery and helped deliver leftover food from Hubble to another location in Des Moines with one of my friends from 3-4pm. This was my first time volunteering for Food Recovery and I'm really excited to volunteer more there!
