Lessons Learned
The local feeding kitchen brings the community together and has played an important role in aquiring and activating volunteers. Weeks where the kitchen was inactive affected participation (Week 2 & 3).
Weather has an impact on volunteering. Surprisingly, bad weather affects the number of people that show up to the feeding kitchen which ultimately affects the number of people coming to signup or volunteering.
