Both this Friday and last year I went to help in the collection and food bank for the most needy people. This Xano association have organized themselves to give food for these holidays, but also for every day.

These women were organizing the various packages with the most important things to eat, long-term, for different needs. I helped with the collection, the subdivision, the various accounts, and all this organizational part.

Children also came to sing us the songs, and brighten up our day, we gave them sweets and they are very happy.

The last Friday was the decisive one because then they had to deliver the various packages, so it was very full of commitments to finish in time all.

I was happy that there were various eprsone who gave bags of the supermarket with the basic food to help, plus I would have supermarkets that had already given something from the warehouse. I could not attend the delivery, but I would like to help next time on this factor too.
