I recently moved from Texas to Tennessee. While I lived in Texas I volunteered in my community for many different organizations. Volunteering for the fire department was my main passion. I really miss it and I'm not able to continue doing it here. So, now I have to find another avenue to channel my passions. One other program I had worked with was feeding children during the summer months. Family is what's most important to me. I did some research and found that 60% of the kids in this area are economically disadvantaged. 1 in 5 kids go to bed hungry. I think this should be where I channel my energy. There don't seem to be any local programs, that I can find. I'm going to the local food pantry to talk with them and see what I can do to get a summer program started. Wish me luck... 4.23.12
