Day 4

Yesterday was a pretty low key day in the warehouse. Some of the other volunteers and I spent the morning counting shoes. There were a lot of shoes. We then put together 26 incentive boxes that would be sent out to the schools. The incentives are things like smiley face erasers and notebooks and crayons and they're kept in a box in the schools office. The kids get to pick out a prize if they get necessary things signed by their parents or things like that. This task included climbing up to the top of this ladder that was maybe 9 or 10 or 11 ft tall and pulling large heavyish boxes off the top top shelf of the warehouse. It was a little terrifying. I almost fell twice. Anyway one we were done with that we shredded some papers and took the tags off some jeans and then spent the rest of the afternoon sorting and inventorying and putting away clothes that had been donated and washed. Super fun.
