Thanksgiving food basket CAS Reflection

At my Church, we do a thanksgiving food drive for people who cant afford to buy a good thanksgiving meal. We went early in the morning and started to separate the food into different baskets. When people started to arrive, I saw that a large amount of people were Hispanic. This really made me think of why there was such a racial barrier. Also, when I went out to go take the baskets to the people, some of the cars had drugs and smoke and other things such as marijuana smoke. This almost made me kind of angry that they were wasting money on these things instead of a good home meal for their family. As I continued to think about it, it realized that this might be their way of coping with the wrong things in their life but they still need to rethink their priorities. Overall, by the end of the day I was happy to see the difference that I had made on my community and other less fortunate than I am.
