Bras for a cause!!!!

On Tuesday of this week I went to Safeway with a group of students (Jesse, Jordan, and Chen) to go help out with community service. What we had to do was sell cupcakes to people in the store to help support breast cancer. See the catch was that we the guys had to wear bras ourselves and it was very embarrassing. These bras were all decorated and they lit up and everything. It was really funny but at the same time a little embarrassing but I knew that it was all for a good cause. We sold the cupcakes which were homemade at three dollars a cupcake and all of the money went towards charity. We set up in front of the main entrance so that people could clearly see how ridiculous we looked. Once everything was set and ready I could tell this was going to be the longest two hours of my life.

We put the bras and started to work. Right when we put them on you could hear all the people around us talking about us and laughing at us. Although we were in bras we really didn't look that bad. Jordan was in the front convincing people to try and buy a cupcake. Chen was managing the money. Jesse and I were the ones who made sure they bought a cupcake when they came to us. It was all kind of a process and it worked very well. The peoe were very nice and they loved to joke around with us. I could remember people saying, "you boys look good in those" they also said stuff like, "do you guys dance if we tip you?" this was a really good experience and I enjoyed every single minute of it. I learned that no matter how embarrassing the cause is as long as your doing it for a good cause it doesn't matter. We did this to support breast cancer. We did have some mishappenings while doing this for example some random guy coming up and taking a cupcake without even paying. We were all schooled and didn't know what to do so we kind of just let it go. Another thing was that a lady was telling me was that she had breast cancer and the little girl she was with, her mom has breast cancer and the little girl doesnt know. It was sad but I still enjoyed doing this because it was for a good cause.

The best thing about this was that we did this out of the kindness of our hearts to try and help anyone who has breast cance. Not only that I enjoyed helping out other people and seeing other people smile and be happy. A lot of people also donated mostly women because some people didn't want any cupcakes. It helped to get that extra money to help out all the people that are in need. We are currently trying to find a cure for this disease an all of the support that is going around is going to make it easier to find. There's nothing better than knowing your helping out others and making other people happy and putting a smile on their face. We are goin to go back again to help out and do the same thing. I will enjoy it even more this time because I know what we're doing and it is all for a good cause. I love to help out people and make others feel good about themselves. It brightens my day up to see me putting smiles on their faces.
