Something Good

I did something good this weekend and it only took an hour and a half. I was invited to an event for Feed My Starving Children on Saturday. It's an organization that packages food to go to impoverished countries. You can check out their website for all of the details about their mission here.

Anyway, in under two hours less than fifty people managed to package and make seventy - five boxes worth of food. The organizers said that it's enough food to feed forty - four  children for a year!!! I think that's pretty impressive. Plus the church where it was held was going to have another session today. I'm sure they can box at least as much as we did yesterday. That's nearly one hundred children that get to eat this year. So I'm glad that I got off my lazy butt this weekend and I feel kinda good about what I helped to accomplish. My friends do come up with crazy ideas for ways to spend our weekend, but I'm glad that we got involved in this project. We can always have game night next week :)
