My CP and Me: Table of Plenty

My Community Partner is Table of Plenty, an organization run by one of our very own Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. I have been working on and off with my CP since last year. This year, because it is my Bonner Leader site, I go every Thursday from 5pm-8pm.  It is a restaurant style soup kitchen that serve the homeless in Half Moon Bay. I had previously worked as a waitress/hostess at a restaurant and HATED it. I don't feel like I am working at a restaurant because the people that come here are humble and hungry (not all are homeless). My CP relies on donations from donors that we get from the annual wine tasting event (I can't remember exactly what it is, just that wine is involved!). I don't know exactly how my CP is affected or constrained by Federal policies, and it is a religious organization so it is exempted from some rules and regulations but not all.


If any one is interested in going, just let me know as I go every Thursday!
