 * Red and Blue Fair**- Clean Up - 1 hour 5/19/12


 * Sunset 5k Run/Walk**- Helped with food, questions, pins - 5 hours 6/19/12


 * JUMC Loaves and Fishes** - Collect food from participating houses. This day a couple of friends and I decided to organize an food drive for the Loaves and Fishes Food Cupboard in Jenkintown. We created flyers, placed them in paper bags and put them on people's doors. The next day, we went on each block and collected the items. It was a huge success. Over 20 households participated in this which is wonderful because they are making a big impact to this community. The food was then sent to the Jenkintown United Methodist Church to be given out to families in need. Knowing that families will be able to have food on their tables is a wonderful feeling. - 10 hours 8/23/12


 * Red and Blue Fair** - I arrived at school at 7 A.M. to help set up the tables and games for the Red and Blue Fair. I covered each table with either a red or a blue table cloth and set them up in their designated areas . I also set the games. Some of the game equipment was heavy to move so other volunteers and I help move them to their rightful places. Set Up - 2 hours - 5/18/13


 * Jenkintown Sunset 5k Run/Walk** - Set up tents, chairs, barricades. Moves supplies to designated areas. - 5 Hours 6/4/13


 * Loaves and Fishes Food Cupboard** - For five consecutive Thursdays, I went to the church and was greeted by a very welcoming staff and many families waiting patiently for the cupboard to open. My volunteering shift went from 11:30 A.M. to 2:30 P.M. For the first 2 Thursdays, my first job was opening up boxes of canned goods and sorting them according to product and type. I organized each item into crates and attached labels on them so it will be easier for other volunteers to quickly get items and restock. The amount of each item was then recorded for inventory. The next 3 weeks, I was promoted to "runner" duty, which was someone who helps the people with each step and the process of picking items in the Food Cupboard. When food on the shelves become low, we “run” to the storage room to get more items to restock the shelves - 18 Hours 7/25/13 - 8/29/13


 * Philabundance** -This day consist of two shift. A morning shift and an afternoon shift. During the morning shift, my job was to open packages with canned tomatoes and place them on a table so it could be put into new boxes for distribution. I wasn't a fan of the morning shift because i"m not big on the whole conveyor belt thing. It really made me happy that I didn't have to work with a conveyor belt everyday as my job. The afternoon shift consisted of going though giant boxes of corn, finding corn that were not messed up and placing them on a conveyor belt so they could be placed in boxes and redistributed. Any broken or old corn were thrown in the trash. - 7 Hours 8/9/13
