I think that perfect solidarity is almost impossible to find in any community, with any issue. Nonetheless, in reflection on my three projects, I will rank the solidarity of the issues I work with from greatest to least.  I find the most solidarity has to do with the protection of children’s identity, security, and privacyContinue reading “Solidarity in Argentinian Issues”

In the photo I have attached is a chalkboardContinue reading “Solidarity for Those We Serve”

Hello Again My everyday routine here is quite nice. Since I’m at home for the summer working for the global cause of hunger, i’m able to wake up to leave before 12:30 for my dry goods sorting shift at Second Harvest, which starts at 1:00. If I’m meeting with a coordinator or director, those areContinue reading “A Day in the Life”

Hello again! I’ve recently had the pleasure of meeting with the Director of Philanthropy at Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida, Dan Samuels. Through this meeting, I learned about how the bank receives and maintains funding, where the food goes, and all those that the bank is able to feed. Through our conversation, IContinue reading “COVID-19’s Impact on Central Floridians Facing Hunger”
