For the first quarter of 2021, your True North team volunteered with Feed More in Richmond last week. We worked on a conveyor belt style assembly line alongside other volunteers and packaged boxes with a variety of food goods to be sent out all over the city! Feed More runs an incredibly efficient shop and does so much good for our community. They also have pretty great taste in music that plays while you work! With the increasing demand for aid around the city, Feed More's impact has never been stronger. However, the increased demand also means they need more hands on deck! So, if you and your family/friends are looking for a place to volunteer that can do a lot of good for the community, we encourage you to reach out to Feed More and see how you can help!

For the second quarter of 2021, our team volunteered through HandsOn Greater Richmond to help the Virginia Randolph Education Center with their garden! Typically, the students on campus help instructors with maintaining and caring for the garden, but due to… “complications of 2020”… students weren’t on campus and the garden had taken the space as it’s own. We helped with pulling weeds, cleaning beds, removing sticks/other debris, pruning, etc. I tell you, it was a hard days work! But it was great to help set up the community garden so that the kids will have something to come back to that they can be proud of and continue to improve!

For second quarter our very own Cathy Mask scheduled for our team to go to River City Escape Room and test our problem solving skills (alongside the strength of our friendships). River City Escape Room has an absolutely fantastic facility with many different escape rooms for you and your family or friends to attempt. We tried the hardest room in Virginia (and its bordering states) called "Innocent". It was incredibly fun being roped into the story and trying to complete all three levels! As smart as I'm sure all of you think we are, the room proved to be too much for us to complete more than the first level (there are three in all). However, we all came out in one piece (although there may have been a few hitches along the way) and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. We recommend to anyone that's looking for an exciting activity to do that's family friendly to go visit River City Escape Room! Great choice Cathy and we'll see everyone for our next installment in Q3!
