Our company provides each employee 100 hours to volunteer for a cause that inspires us.  We as a company have decided to do a group community service project for The Food Bank of Central Louisiana (FBCL).  One day every other week employees from our company go to the FBCL to take part in community service.  We currently have been packing boxes of food to issue to the elderly in the community.  Here are a few pictures from our trip to FBCL on July 23, 2008.
