How Am I Doing?: Today was like the previous days of community service. The delivery truck arrived a little after 9 o'clock. I helped unload the boxes onto the tables around the room. We then took brown paper bags and filled them with food from around the room. Then I helped load the bags into the drivers cars.
After that was finished I went with one of the volunteers to help deliver the food. We went to a retirement complex where we went to 12 different rooms throughout the complex to give the people their food.

Day 5 of Community Service
Date of Service: March 19, 2011 Time Spent: 4 Hours Total Time: 13 Hours
Action: -Unloaded food from the truck
-Set up food on tables
-Handed out bags of food to people
Next Action: On Tuesday I'll be back at Mater Dolorosa packing bags of food and finishing up my community service hours.
How Am I Doing?: I arrived at the Hillside Church of God at 8 o'clock and found I was one of the only volunteers there because of the rain. So this meant I had to move a majority of the food inside the building. After all of the food was inside we started to place the boxes around the room at the tables they would be handed out at. I then helped setup cans of food on one of the tables.
After I finished that I went to help one of the other volunteers outside where we were handing out more food. While we were outside it started to rain which made things a little difficult but didn't stop us. I was taking peoples tickets and giving them plastic bags to hold their food. After everyone was gone I helped clean up.

Day 4 Of Community Service
Date of Service: March 15, 2011 Time Spent: 2 Hours Total Time: 9 Hours
Action: -Unloaded boxes of food
-Packed brown bags full of food
-Crushed and recycled empty boxes
Next Action: On Saturday I plan on returning to the Hillside Church of God to continue with my community service hours doing much of the same work I did at Mater Dolorosa.
How Am I Doing?: For the third week in a row I was back at Mater Dolorosa. Much like the past two times I have volunteered there, I arrived about 9 o'clock and waited with the other volunteers for the truck to arrive. When It finally did, it brought more food than the past couple of times, which meant there was a lot more boxes to unload onto the tables.
When the food was out on the tables I went around the room filling bags with the food. When that was done and the food was loaded I started to clean up the room. I then preceded to crush all of the empty boxes outside and recycle them.
