The issue of poverty is so prevalent in Sonoma County. Working at the food bank I see how much food the homeless and poor need and how many people are struggling to find enough food for their families. My CBSL helps to eliminate those who are searching of a way to fin food for their families and working full time job. The food bank not only provides to adults, but also too families and the elderly.
My understanding of option for the poor has grown since I started my CBSL. I didn't fully grasp the amount of poverty that is in my own town, or my own state. I am so cared for that I sometimes take for granted the simple necessities of having food waiting for me at home, while other kids don't know when their next meal is. I have started to become so grateful for the little things I have taken for granted and want to find a way to help other people, who are less fortunate, get the same items and necessities I have.
