​Join us to help wrap burritos on Thursday, July 17th from 3:45 to 8:00.
 
We will prepare the burritos from 3:45 to 5:30 in the Common Room at First Unitarian Universalist Church of San Diego in Hillcrest.
 
The process involves scooping beans, rice, and corn into a warmed tortilla, wrapping the tortilla, placing two burritos into a bag with two cold waters, and then putting the bagged items into a wagon.
 
We depart from the Hillcrest campus at 5:30 pm and meet at the South Bay First Church campus to distribute at 6:00 pm.  Folks can expect to return to Hillcrest by 8 pm latest.
​
 
You are welcome to participate in either the preparation, distribution, or both.

Why is it so difficult for some people to give so little and so easy for others to give so much? ABUNDANT explores these questions by entering the world of extreme altruism: non-directed kidney donation. These rare individuals give kidneys away to complete strangers.
