The number of people volunteering nationwide is dropping while the need is only growing. One San Francisco man has made it a tradition to give back, and he's encouraging others to do the same.
Every Thursday at 8 a.m., you can catch Herbert Lee smiling and prepping groceries at a pop-up pantry in Chinatown."I chose this site specifically because of my heritage," Lee said."I actually grew up in this neighborhood and wanted to give back."back in 2020. Now, he would like to see more people signup to help regularly.
In the past three years, the number of people volunteering nationwide has dropped by 7 percent. This is according to a new study by the U.S. Census Bureau and Americorp. Staff at the food bank, like Jason Nunan, says being able to help some of the most vulnerable families keeps him going. Lee shares he is grateful to be a part of a program his family could have used when he was growing up.
