We’ve made it to Houston! After a long day of travel and a good nights rest we have settled in. We have completed orientation and are all very excited for the week ahead of us.

Tonight we processed over 7,500 food items on the late shift at the Houston Food Bank!
Fun Fact : The Houston Food Bank is the nations biggest food bank, providing food assistance to roughly 800,000 families in an average year.

Today we started our morning as an entire team at Faith Center Food Distribution. Faith Center has set up their entire system to work like a store. Participants in need get to shop for clothes, household goods, cleaning items and food all for free. Shopping on their own allows participants to feel dignified and have a sense of normalcy during their hard times.
This afternoon we visited the Holocaust Museum Houston.
