What did you do in 8 weeks?
In 8 weeks, we managed to raise a Garden, donate nearly a ton of food from the Garden to multiple Pantries, and raise money to insure the Future of the Garden.
What did you learn?
I learned that I in particular am no fan of Gardening, but that there are people out there who are grateful for us having done so because of what we were able to provide to them, and that can go quite a long way.
What was your biggest impact?
Our biggest impact may have to be the awareness we were able to raise within our community of the importance of helping and informing those who may be less fortunate and/or educated. By raising awareness we not only managed to have a reasonably successful summer of help but have hopefully encouraged others throughout the community to continue on where we left off…
How has the experience changed you and the community you served?
The Experience has provided me with a better understanding and respect of the work that goes into serving a community in need. I may not be as critical of it as I was once before.
Quotes from the community partner and from a community member about the services you were able to bring to the community:
I suppose quote from most would be "Thank You."
