Bagging Apples

The 7th-grade class started off the week volunteering at the Alameda County Food Bank in Oakland. Most of the class remembered helping out last year, but for a few, this was their first visit.

During this trip to the food bank, the students were tasked with bagging apples. After 90 minutes of filling and tying bags of apples, the group had prepared 4,800 pounds of food. This equated to 3,984 meals as a group or 234 meals per volunteer.

The staff and volunteers at the Food Bank extended their gratitude for this community support. Nice work, 7th grade!
