Reflections
Service doesn't need to be a chore!! It felt awesome to know that the work we did will help feed children. This experience has changed my entire life. This experience has done more to me than the children. Knowing it only takes one motion just to put a box/bag of food can do so much for the kids/family. This experience was eye opening. It was a lot of fun. Efficiency is fun. That was fun. Work is more fun when it's done quickly. Speed and efficiency can finish every bag. Buckle UP! When you help the community, it is more fun with people you know (friends). What a powerful way to think about and connect youth to hunger. Teens filling food backpacks for other young people...perfect service project. We worked together and finished early! I had fun! Busy. Accomplishment. Satisfaction. Productive. A great time for a great thing. It was fun and we got a lot done. It felt good to come out and help and know that I am feeding people who can't. Awesome today! So great to give time, help people who needed and share with my kids. LOVED IT! My wish is that OKC didn't know hunger. Surprisingly, it was fun, even to clean-up. I wanna come again! It was a lot of fun! 4,005 bags. Should have set a bigger goal =) 500 was too small. It was great watching all the students, teachers, parents, and administrators from various schools come together for good for all. My heart is full knowing that others will be blessed by the services provided today. More than 4,000 lbs. of food, way pass my personal goal. Apparently milk can last a year! Working together you can make a difference. Team bonding!, Teamwork! We fed a lot of people! Tuttle Tigers Stop Hunger. Hunger cannot stop us. The hungry may be many, but with hope, we can stop the fight.

“They gained many different views of communication in their world. Each of the workshops was designed to be discovery-based instead of lecture so that students were actively engaged in many different types of communication,” said MD English Teacher Stephanie Crossno.
