My experience at the Houston Food Bank was rewarding, fun, and enlightening. It was rewarding knowing that I was filling bags of rice to help those in need. At one point, I went outside and saw a long line of vehicles waiting to get food, and that, made volunteering worth it. It was an enlightening experience because I have always thought the Houston Food Bank was for homeless people, but it is not. It is for working people who have a hard time buying groceries after paying their bills. Don't get me wrong, the Houston Food Bank will not turn anyone away. Had I not volunteered, I would have been ignorant to what it is the Houston Food bank does. This was my first time volunteering and I can definitely say I would do it again, again, and again.
