Food for Life |

All it takes is a
peanut butter and jelly sandwich, a piece of fresh fruit, and one
half-pint of juice to keep a child from going hungry for a day.
This is why each week
since April 2004, groups of about 15 to 20 volunteers have been coming
out to The Hare Krishna Temple of Houston to prepare sack lunches
consisting of sandwiches, fruit, and juice for an estimated 300 to 500 hungry children. The dining hall of
the temple is turned into an assembly line of sorts with some of the
volunteers lined up spreading peanut butter or jelly on bread; others
focus on bagging the sandwiches; still others fill brown paper bags
with fruit and juice and line them up in rows on two long tables. It
takes time, but in the process, volunteers can talk and joke and maybe
even strike up a friendship or two.
