For my first class service project, we volunteered at Obs Pasta Kitchen from 9 July to 13
August. I chose Obs Pasta Kitchen because of their focus on community building and
the importance they place on preserving the dignity of the guests.
During our time there, we helped with serving food and drinks, washing dishes and
talking with the guests. Since we were there for 6 weeks, we were able to form proper
relationships with some of the people who regularly eat there. We were able to meet a
whole lot of different people that we would never otherwise have met. Overall, I really
enjoyed organising and running this activity since we were able to see the difference we
could make.
Lilia wrote “this was a truly eye opening experience for me. I got to talk to many of the
people who come to collect a meal there and realised how one can take things like
eating 3 meals a day and having a safe place to sleep for granted.
I was also impressed by the dedication of the people who volunteer there and was
happy to see us scouts can help too.”
