Service: 9 hours
This year, I had the privilege of once again working alongside fellow Key Club members as well as the Chino community and participating in the annual service events of Isaiah's Rock. This incredible organization works tirelessly each year to provide the less fortunate in the community with something special during the holidays. During thanksgiving this year, I helped package thousands of goods and non-perishable food items to be distributed among the community the next day. On distribution day, I helped pass out the cartloads of food to the families. It never ceases to amaze me that the families are so kind and good-spirited despite their unfortunate conditions. One of the families told us they spent the night at the distribution site because the food and gifts they receive are what they look forward to during the holiday season. Spreading the holiday spirit and giving what one can is what the holidays are truly about. I went back at Christmas to be stunned by the event all over again. I am so humbled to have been a part of these outstanding events and to have been able to witness a sliver of humanity at its best.
