Blog 11: Mentorship 10 Hours Check

1. Los Angeles Union Rescue Mission
2. Bethany Turner, Volunteer Coordinator
3. 10 hours so far
4. Currently at the Union Rescue Mission, I am on the kitchen's staff. So far, I help by serving all the men women and children who come in to eat for lunch and dinner. On my first day we had a roof barbecue which I learned happens on the first Friday of every month. I now help in the kitchen in any way I can whether it be preparing meals, cleaning tables, or serving the guests. However, serving the families is in my opinion the funnest because when we get a break in between switching groups, the children will come running in and ask to play hide and seek, or tell you about their day and what they're studying in school. Working here is so much fun and fulfilling because everyone at URM is so incredibly nice and just genuinely want to help those in need. My plans now are to become a tutor at URM, and to be on the children's staff where you get to coordinate activities for all the children on Fridays from 5-6.
