I volunteered with Citadel of Love-My Brother's Keeper helping to serve meals. The leaders of the ministry really have a heart for the community. They don't just feed them they get involved in their lives helping and assisting in many ways. They truly care! The other volunteers are wonderful as well.

It is a heartfelt cause giving the less fortunate an opportunity they may not otherwise have a chance to get.
