Before I went to help out at the Greater Cleveland Food Bank, I was really curious. I wondered what it would be like and how so many different people could work together to help the poor. When I got there, it was cool to see how much of a difference we could make when we all worked together. Everyone was super supportive and focused on helping out. This whole experience made me see things differently. I now understand how important it is to help out in your community and how awesome it feels to be part of something that’s making a real difference. It’s made me want to keep finding ways to help out communities that are around the school.

I started to work in the SOS last semester. This is my first time to involve in a real business. I experienced everything about the SOS and realized how complex it is to run a business. I spent a lot of time preparing and the setup for SOS, every time after a shop, we would gather and talk about what can we do to improve our service and get our program better.
