It was sweltering in the sun, but there we were...volunteers from the 4GOOD network joined in on Friday, August 20th, to help pack backpacks for kids in need.  The Organization Friends and Helpers had a goal of packing 3,000 backpacks for kids of all ages...by 1:30 we were done!  Amazing!  Thank you to all the 4GOOD volunteers who came out in the heat to help.  It was a great event and our dear friends at "Friends and Helpers" really appreciated it.  Another great experience for the kids to get involved.
