Photo Journal: Friendship Trays

My friend, Amy Corbett, and I have been delivering Friendship Trays on and off for the past 2 1/2 years.  This past Wednesday was our last day to deliver our summer route (which we did every other week).

Volunteering in the community is such a great tool for teaching kids to serve others.  Friendship Trays (here in Charlotte a division of Meals on Wheels) is perfect for kids.  They enjoy bringing the people their juice and food and have a great time together. 

It takes us a little more than an hour and then we usually go to a fun place to eat.  This week we visited the train in Matthews after lunch.  We're taking a break for the fall but we will be back at it again soon I am sure.

I thought I had cornered the market on Charlotte things to do with pre-schoolers... I guess not. I LOVE this idea! Thanks for sharing.

Tonia and I do Friendship Trays with our boys, too! Our favorite stop along the way is the apartment complex where our 101-year-old (that's right, 101!) friend Ms. Marcia lives. I love the life lessons and great experiences that go along with Friendship Trays :)
