Celebrating a birthday with volunteer work

Today my friend Christy Crick celebrated her 31st birthday by having friends and family come to the Harvesters Community Food Network in Kansas City. She bought everyone BBQ for lunch and instead of receiving presents she asked each person to bring ten can goods to donate. There were about 15 of us and we all spent 3 hours separating food to give out to the community. This was such a humbling way to celebrate Christy's birthday and I loved it. It was so cool to see her giving away her time and energy to others for her birthday. Christy is so caring to others and does a lot of volunteer work in Kansas City. If you want to know more about Harvesters you can click on the link above. Most of the work done there is by volunteers and they always need your help. It was a fun experience so I recommend you check it out. We did so much work in three hours yet it was so little compared to all the work that is needed to feed those that need help. Here is a video to show you what we did today. Sorry about the bad audio but it was taken from my phone. Hope everyone is having a blessed weekend!
