Ela Soccer Club Food Drive

Ela Soccer Club Food Drive

October 17-23

My name is Austin and my sister is Lauren, I like playing this really cool online game my teacher told me about called Free Rice.  For every question you answer right 10 grains of rice are donated to a third world country.  One day our family started talking about families in this area that don’t have enough to eat and that surprised us.  So we thought it would be great to help families in our community and we thought our friends would like to help too.
