Testimonials
“I enjoyed participating in this service activity. As a whole, we were able to accomplish making over 500 food bags to serve the community. It was also a rewarding and heartfelt experience to go out into the community and give them food. The little things can impact someone's day in a positive way. The people I met were so thankful and appreciative.” - Alexa Devilme
“I loved this service opportunity! I was able to see the direct impact of our work, as all the meals we packaged up were distributed out to local homeless communities right after service ended.” - Zoe
“The past three weekends I have volunteered for the aucsandwichrun through lifting our voices inc. GSU. I have really enjoyed the service and the fellowship with other students across Atlanta. Delivering the meals after packing them is such a rewarding experience. I got a chance give out meals under the bridge near University Commons. There is a whole community of people who barely receive resources because you can only access the bridge from the highway.” - Aulona Graham-Simms
