High schooler's goal to help families locally

This will be our club's second annual Food Drive for those who are struggling with food insecurity.

After volunteering at the Mansfield Food Pantry, I immediately knew that this was a place that made a difference in people's lives. The volunteers ranged in age, but each of them have a smile on their face whenever I see them. The "customers" of the pantry are no different. They always want to talk and make our lives easier, even though they are in need of food. The Mansfield Food Pantry cherished volunteers and has countless posters and designs from those who help.

After presenting this idea to the lead volunteer at the pantry, he was immediately on board and offered to help in any way possible.

Even a small donation can greatly help, as it can provide cans of food, toilet paper, or boxes of cereal. If you are unable to donate money, so many pantries love donations, and anyway you can make a change in someone's life will help them indefinitely.

Note: Neither my club nor myself will receive any of the money donated, as GoFundMe will automatically give it to the Mansfield Food Pantry, so you can be assured your donation helps out!
