I love volunteering at Brown Bag Food Project! I didn't get much of a chance to volunteer there this semester, but I really missed the people there. So sad I'm graduating and moving away because I would be there as much as possible!
I helped to prepare dinner, serve, and clean up after the Wednesday night dinner service. Everyone was very kind and if I need more service hours, I'll definitely come here!
We served salads, an entree, and a dessert to the members of St. Mark's Lutheran Church for their weekly free dinner. Everyone was really nice and welcoming. They also let me take home a slice of red velvet cake, which was very nice!
I watched videos and took a short questionnaire over how to properly volunteer for BGSU Serves. The most important part of the training emphasized BGSU Serves' non-partisan approach as well as the laws regarding voter registration.
This focus group was well run and to the point. We discussed our feelings on BGSU's course evaluation system, how we could improve them, and what we dislike about them currently. I hope the study comes out soon because I would be interested to see if our opinions are taken into consideration for the future of course evaluations!
I transcribed 15 more pages and reviewed 13 documents. This session took significantly longer because a lot of the material I was transcribing was sheet music, one of which was in Danish, so that took me a while to get the correct characters. I'll post below but as of January 2024 the Library of Congress will no longer be manually verifying Give Pulse submissions. I uploaded my serive letter and the comment they made on my last contribution as verification.
The restore is always a good time. Really laid back with only a couple big groups of people. I picked up empty hangers, organized the clothes, and helped customers with the rules of the restore. I forgot to take a picture while volunteering so here's me across the street as I was leaving.
We went around the stadium picking up trash and recycling bags as well we their metal stands. After collecting everything we stacked up the stands and sorted through the recycling bags.
