    When I was unemployed for a while I really needed something to do and just couldn't sit home and search for jobs all day. I found my local food bank and decided to see if they could use my help. Located in Pasco, WA Second Harvest allowed me to find a passion for giving back.

    I also found it a great place to meet new people and it was for a great cause. I found it very competitive as I was able to see how fast I could box up an entire bin of apples.

    Second Harvest needs volunteers to help sort and repackage food. Giving back feels so good and you are providing help to others. What will you do to help others and give back today?
