Homeless Feeds



Four one of the clubs that I am a part of, we participate in monthly homeless feeds. I get this great feeling as we make the food and go out and serve it to the people in the line. I love hearing them say that I’m doing something wonderful and that they really appreciate it. I feel like I’m making a difference. Even though, it’s a small project and I only do it once a month, I see their delight and I know that I helped their lives. Every month, I work with the advisor and we create a theme for everyone’s meal. For example, pastries, sweets, meat, etc. One day we made plenty of sandwiches. It was freezing outside and my sister and I wanted to entertain ourselves while getting a laugh out of those we were serving. She took peanut butter and jelly and I took bologna. Whoever got rid of their sandwiches first didn’t have to do chores for a week. She took the deal since she thought she would win with their being less of her sandwiches and more of mine. This introduced her to marketing and trying to sell her product. Of course, I was ridding of my sandwiches faster than her. But I think it was how I was selling my sandwich. While she asked if they would like peanut butter and jelly, I would cut her off and say, “Why eat a boring PB&J sandwich when you can have a meaty cheesy sandwich?!?” and “Don’t choose her sandwich, mine’s wayyyy better.” Our sibling rivalry gave everyone a laugh which made us laugh even more.
