Huge Thanks to District 88’s Transition Group & Citra of Downer’s Grove Park District

Here at the Humanitarian Service Project we are chugging along at a decent pace for our Christmas Food sorting! We would like to extend a huge thank you to the DuPage High School District 88’s Transition Group for playing an important part in our process! The did great work earlier today in helping us sort out the food donations that we had received earlier in the week from the Naperville Newcomers and Neighbors group that we featured in our previous blog post as well as food that they brought in as their own donation! The Transition Group did a wonderful job, and we at HSP greatly appreciate all the effort that they put into sorting the food as well as the donation of food!

We would also like to extend our thanks to the Citra service group from the Downer’s Grove Park District. These five young adults helped build one-hundred new boxes and sort a variety of food into them for one-hundred families that HSP will be distributing food to this Christmas season. The Citra group did a fantastic job, and we thank them for taking time out of their week to lend a helping hand.

A third huge thank you goes to Tom Hogan for volunteering all day in order to supervise the two other volunteer groups! He did a wonderful job in keeping track of the sorting process! Thank you again, Tom.

Finally, we would also like to thank Pete Laabs, Bud Newman, and Larry Erven for the work delivering food to us and the effort they put into helping HSP keep everything moving forward.

Thanks again to everyone that came in today to volunteer. HSP would not be able to provide our services without your continued support! If you, or anyone you know, would like to help make a difference in the surrounding community by volunteering here at HSP, you can learn more by visiting this link: http://www.humanitarianservice.org/getinvolved/index.html
