199 Words1 Page

As we drove past the countless McDonalds and Starbucks, I was practically shivering with excitement. My Dad was taking me and my friend Devilin to GameStop, because we were both doing good in school and for trying out football.

Possibly we can make a deal with one chain grocery store particularly. Grocery stores have a great deal of foods that goes to waste, so why not donate to a good cause? Then I will work to make food trucks out of school buses, where we can find volunteers to drive the trucks into low-income areas and offer the fruits and vegetables, as well as easy meals. I am sure we would have no problem finding volunteers, I believe many of my social work friends would be interested in driving the food truck once in a while, and then the average middle-class person
