For Spartan Service Day, I alongside my fellow Spartans, volunteered for BackPack Beginnings. In the four timeframe, my group and I made over 80 kid food bags, allowing children a full meal to take home, and restocked the toy and backpacks sections, allowing for families to come in anytime and pick up any needed supplies. This experience allowed to recognize the food insecurity children may experience as well as the incredible resources, such as BackPack Beginnings, there are that allow families in need to survive and thrive. From this, I will look into more volunteer opportunities to help close the gap between children hunger & food insecurity and healthy happy children.
