YMCA of Metro Lansing

Mobile Kitchen Intern

May - August 2018 • Lansing, MI

What I liked

I got to meet new families daily and hear about their stories and their home lives. I was able to bring something to them that is is vastly under-appreciated, a meal to eat. I was able to travel to 12 locations in the Lansing area and bring a balanced meal for free to the families who were at each location.

What I wish was different

That I was able to have a more hands on experience in the food making process.

Advice

Make sure to look at what you're doing as a whole. The days are long and are very fast moving, it gets tiring, but you are doing something that means so much and is making a huge difference in peoples lives and it makes it worth it.
