๐Ÿ‘   The regularly scheduled monthly Food Bank activity had 18 members, guests, and 3 spouse / partners, sleeving oranges for the local distributions.
A โ€œWHOPPING 5,000lbsโ€!! OUT A SIGHT ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

Our other activity was at a Community Church in Pittsburg. Distributing produce and fruits to the local residents.
This is a great way to meet and talk to the people of the area, really โ€œopens you eyesโ€ to their needs.
Also, the attending members recognize how SIR Branch 8 volunteering is fulfilling.
                       Thanks for the Support   ๐Ÿ‘
