Day 3
So today I was supposed to go to a book fair at one of the schools that Little Bit works with but they already had enough volunteers going. I spent the first half hour in the offices sorting new shoes that had just come in. I spent the rest of the morning with 3 other students and 2 employees at a school that little bit has been working with for almost 2 years. The students at this school were in pk - 3rd grade. The process of giving the students their clothes was much more organized here than it was yesterday. This school had a room that was designated as the Little Bit Boutique. They had extra clothes and shoes and socks and toothbrushes and it was set up like a store. The kids were all really sweet and absolutely loved getting their new shoes. We then went to a school that had 4th - 6th grade and gave those students their orders. This school was associated with the first one but was a little less organized. We were working out of the counselors office and it was really small but we got all the students their orders. After we got back to the Little Bit office I spent the afternoon washing stuffed animals, sorting laundry, inventorying incoming clothing and shredding papers. I left after the paper shredder overheated. Tomorrow I will be staying home and washing clothes for them instead of going into the office because they have a large group coming in and it would be too crowded.

So you washed clothes for them at your house? That's kinda cool.
ReplyDeleteYea, they have so much laundry that needs to be done and the washing machine they have there cannot wash many clothes at once so they give us hours for each load of laundry we do at home!
