This past Saturday was Sharefest's Annual Workday. I signed up to help Joseph Haller's project at the Boys and Girls Club of Harbor Gateway Torrance. I was really surprised at how tiny this place is.
Here is Diane Haller and her daughter, Hannah, folding tee shirts. I helped at with volunteer registration and was blessed to get to know Diane better.
The volunteers painted both the interior and exterior of the building.
They also cleaned up the area from old plant and furniture debris.
The wheelchair ramp had corroded paint and was very slippery so the surface was scraped and non-slip strips were installed.
I thought it was hilarious, yet practical, that when their tape measure went missing, Robin Haller had the idea of using a Winchell's box as the consistent measure between the slip strips.
Part of my job was to help get the lunch, as well as cut fruit for the volunteers.
I went with Nancy Detjen and her friend, Jeannette, to Del Amo mall to pick up the sandwiches that were donated by Chick-fil-A.
Here we are serving the volunteers lunch:
All the teens replenishing their energy after their hard work. Joseph is in the red tee shirt. He was doing this as his Eagle Scout project as well as working with Sharefest. He did a great job.
