Healthy Food Giveaway

This past Saturday, First Alliance Church and our partners once again served the community through our monthly Healthy Food Giveaway. We served 360 families and did it in record time. According to Pastor Allen, on average, we served one family every three minutes.
There was a steady flow of guests from beginning to end. The stated beginning time was 10:00 a.m., but with cars lining up in the street ahead of time, we typically let cars go through the line as soon as our full team is assembled. This time around, we had about 30 volunteers, with a dozen or so coming out as key team leaders.
The weather was unusually gorgeous, with blue skies and a very comfortable 70 degrees. While the volunteers were happy for the sunny day, they are also quite willing to come out and serve, rain or shine.
Have you had a chance to volunteer for this event yet? It takes place on the second Saturday of each month. You can come all the time or just every now and then. Click here to get in on the action!
