He was perfect for me as he started out in buying and now is in sourcing, which are two paths I am considering taking.

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
