Kitchen Meal Prep @ MANNA
I volunteered at the Metropolitan Area Neighborhood Nutrition Alliance (MANNA) on August 22, 2024 from 10am-1pm. This non-profit organization cooks and delivers nutritious, medically-appropriate meals to those battling life-threatening illnesses and are at acute nutritional risk. I assisted with kitchen meal prep by packaging food like french toast and pancakes. It was very important to measure out the appropriate amount of food in each container because every meal is portion sized for the appropriate nutritious value. While volunteering here, I worked on a team with other volunteers. It was rewarding to see how anybody can lend a helping hand and how working on a team made finishing our task very efficient. Volunteering at MANNA is very important in helping provide food to those who medically need it. Overall health especially being able to have the right sustenance is important to every human being. Having nutritious food and a well balanced diet can help maintain good oral health.
