We were excited to return to Huron for another drought emergency food relief distribution on Thursday, August 20. That was our favorite element of our Crazy Love Tour, even though it was the hardest working day of the trip! We loved being able to personally interact with the people we were serving. Their smiles of gratitude and relief on their faces as they received food made the hard work worth it!
When Fresno's Community Food Bank heard that we were considering volunteering again, they called us to ask if we'd return this week to serve in Huron again. We were excited to find ourselves heading back to Huron one more time for this encore Crazy Love service project!
Although the temperatures soared into the 100s, we enjoyed working hard to make a difference. In fact, some of us even enjoyed it more this time than last time! We were also encouraged by the fact that other teenagers and adults joined us this time who didn't come on the Tour, having been inspired by the youth's testimonies. After serving both shifts and cleaning up the distribution site, we started the 2 1/2 hour drive back home. It was an awesome day!
