Each day we are working in the centers we take box lunches from Voyager. They consist of items like: bread, fruit, meat - like a piece of chicken, a small bottle of water and/or yogurt. When we are in the centers we eat with the children and the food is good. We usually leave the boxed lunches to be distributed among the staff. On the day we went to Tiwi we didn't have time to eat at the center, but ate snacks we had with us and gave away the lunches as we drove out of the area. I think the look on this little girl's face says it all......and she doesn't even know what's in the box yet! It was fun!!

I remember fondly the looks of the children as we gave them those box lunches last year. They were SO grateful. It made one's heart melt to see their happiness at even this small bit of food.
ReplyDeleteI share that with you Pat. They ran to their huts to share what they had with their family. I'll bet they felt proud being able to help fill a empty tummy.
ReplyDeleteI agree you two. It never felt so good to feel hungry as it did on the day we eagerly gave those lunches away:) What a gift it was for us to see the smiles on those faces.
