Volunteering and Helping Others - While most people are just starting their day, I have already been working for hours, delivering food bank boxes to needy senior facilities, picking up discarded groceries from local stores, and returning to the staging station at my food pantry so I am ready when the gate opens. When the coronavirus prohibited many of my academic and athletic opportunities, I sought the opportunity to help the community I saw struggling, and began working at the West Valley Food Pantry. With an extreme increase in clients starting in April, the pantry shifted its system to a drive-through, with volunteers such as myself safely putting food boxes in their trunks. The pantry is dependent on young volunteers like myself, as much physical labor is required to move pallets of food from storage to the distribution station and back. Sadly, there is a lack of volunteers due to the virus so I recruited and organized some friends to either donate or volunteer at the pantry.
