Volunteer Placement

Hey guys,

Yesterday (Tuesday) we started our volunteer work here in Sydney, the place I am working is St. Vinny's. For those of you who don't know St. Vinny's has thrift stores with discounted prices to help people who can't afford new clothes, they also use the money they make to help pay bills, provide food, and many other services. My job was to go through the clothes rack and pull out the older clothes so we could put more out. I've already gotten to know a few of the employees well and I have a great time talking to them. It always makes it easier at the end of the day to know who you're helping and how you can make a difference in their life.

Tonight we are going to a cricket match, you'll have to check back for a post about how it went. Hopefully things are going well in Wisconsin and you are enjoying our stories, let us know if you have any questions!

Amy
