Dear Danielle, Thank you for your lovely email! It sounds like you have been having a time at the food bank. I remember you mentioning your interest in volunteering back in , so I am glad you finally went through with it. The story about Mr. Okafor bringing cookies really does — she would have done the exact same thing. As for the December campaign, I would love to help out! I will need to check my first, but I am sure I can arrange at least one Saturday off. And I definitely will not say no to lunch at the afterward! Talk soon, Nadia
