#23: Serve food at a soup kitchen.


I'm a little behind on these acts of kindness so I'm off today to try and tackle the list (and watch basketball of course). Our Daily Bread in Baltimore is a soup kitchen in Baltimore City that St. Louis donates chicken dinners to monthly. In addition to donating food, you can also volunteer to serve food, which is what I did this morning. It was super early (and I should not have stayed out/up so late last night) because you had to be there at 7am to setup and prepare before the doors open at 7:30. It was a pretty awesome experience. The people that come and the workers there are really grateful for the service. Our Daily Bread isn't just a soup kitchen either, it's also an employment center. You have to call in and get on the schedule to volunteer but it was definitely worth it--and they need a ton of volunteers. If you don't have the time to volunteer, they could definitely use the donations as well.
