Tranquil Menagerie 4H Club Walking Against Hunger!

We have so many amazing Walk teams and from time to time we like to show off the amazing work they are doing for Foodshare and our community!  Take, for example, the Tranquil Menagerie 4H Club.  Team captain, Jennifer Davis, had this to say of her amazing group:


"We have been walking as a team since 2012 (this will be our 3rd year) and have grown in numbers every year we have participated!  We began walking because we do a lot of community service through 4H and had been volunteering with Foodshare for a number of years (sorting produce, participating in the Hunger 101 project and the Hog Run). We wanted to continue to support Foodshare.  We encourage others in our club to join by sharing our experiences from previous years.  The kids share how fun it is as well as what a good thing it is to do.  We usually try and publish an article in our 4H newsletter letting others know what we are doing with our community service.  4H is a community of young people that promotes leadership, citizenship and life skills.  It's about developing mastery, generosity, independence and belonging which I think goes well with the Foodshare concept."

Well done Jennifer and the whole Tranquil Menagerie 4H Club!  To support their Walk efforts, click here.
