We had an amazing WABASH DAY.
The National Capital Association of Wabash Men volunteered in the food pantry at Bread for the City (BFTC). Since 1974, BFTC (http://www.breadforthecity.org) has been providing vulnerable residents of Washington, D.C., with comprehensive services (i.e., food, clothing, medical care, legal and social services). BFTC services 11,000 residents each month for free.
I couldn't even begin to guess how many food relief packages we made that morning. As we were informed, we accomplished in a few hours what it takes BFTC's daily volunteers at least a week to do! In fact, they ran out of room in their storage space and we ended up filling three flights of stairs with food packages.
I have to give the credit to our great turnout. Fifteen guys -- from '72 to '07 -- participated in Saturday's WABASH DAY here in Washington. Those attending included:
