Volunteer hours: (as of 2/1/2021) 12/6- 4 hours 12/8- 3.5 hours 12/14- 4 hours 1/4- 5 hours 1/6- 3.5 hours 1/18- 1.5 hours 1/25- 1.5 hours 2/1- 1 hour Total: 24 hours Over winter break I began volunteering regularly at Broadmoor Food Pantry. On Mondays and Wednesdays, the food pantry provides 70 families with large boxes of food. The boxes contain 20+ pounds of fresh produce, bread products, dairy products, and meat. I really have enjoyed getting to know, work with, and serve the community around me. I wanted to make sure I could reach as many people in the community as possible so I went door to door in my neighborhood and signed people up for the food delivery program. I now get to deliver boxes of groceries to five families on my block. I am grateful that working at Broadmoor food pantry has given me the opportunity to immerse myself in my community. Unfortunately I will be unable to volunteer as frequently as I would like to this semester because classes coincide with the times tha
