Q: Did you know that 1 in 4 students suffer from child hunger, how do you think that affects you personally?
A: I didn’t know that but I don’t think it affects me personally, I feel sympathetic for them but it doesn’t affect me.
Q: As a student what challenges do you face with food access at school?
A: Well I have to pay for lunch but that’s really it. At school the pizza is better than they were in middle school but about half of the food at this school I eat and the rest is DISGUSTING!
Q: What’s The Biggest Risk You’ve Ever Taken? How does it connect to helping others?
A: Well recently I volunteered for link crew and that helps incoming freshmen to get prepared for their oncoming high school years and I personally help them by mentoring them through their freshman year.
Q: Are you willing to help others in situations where you have the upper hand?
A: Yes, totally! If I have a friend who can’t afford lunch and I have money instead of buying them school lunch which I rarely eat myself I will go out and buy them lunch.
Q: Rate your day on a scale of 1 to 10 & why
A: 6, because it’s super slow going and I was extremely tired before I came to FEEST and my day is slowly progressing because of FEEST and the positive energy that FEEST brings to my life.
