I work for an amazing company! Every year they divide the company into 3 groups (we only have 21 people in the company) and each group gets $5000 to donate to a charity or organization of their choice. This year my group and I decided to donate to the Second Harvest Foodbank. Not only did we get to donate our money to these wonderful people who are VERY short on food, donations, and supplies this year, but we also got to donate our time!
Our group of 6 spent 2 hours bagging apples from these ginormous crates! I think we completely bagged 4 or 5 crates in that time. While it may not seem like hard work, the constant bending over and the occasional bad apple made it a fun challenge. There was actually a group of old folks from an assisted living facility there and we were trying to bag more apples than them. This may not seem like it would've been a hard task but they come every week to help and were very experienced baggers! I still think we managed to bag more than them. Either way, it was a great experience and always feels good to help those in need. Happy Holidays!
