Service Learning

November 10 ,2007 i will be attending the Gleaners food bank. I choose this service learning because it hits pretty close to home. At one point in my life i was literally a dollar away from being homeless. My house along with a lot of other Michigan citizens got put up on foreclosure. The bank was about to take my house and everything in it. We couldn't afford our house non the less food. I worked 20 hour a week and also was going to school. I used the money i was making to buy food and help pay for my family's living expenses. Currently we still have our house because the bank gave us a little extra time to get our act together. I think Gleaners is a great program that i can relate with. My home often got gifts from charities such as lunch meat, corn and other valuable food items. I just thank got everyday for what he has given me and for all the charities that have donated to my family.
