WEEK FIVE:

The Ross family knows that when they volunteer at Open Arms, they are not only making a difference in this community, but they are taking away experiences that will stay with them long after a meal delivery.

Making this video was a great experience for me. My learning went far beyond video production. To me the grade became unimportant by the end of the experience. The importance of the project became helping others. Through this video I truly hope that Open Arms is able to expand their wonderful services. I was able to learn so much from the clients and the Ross family in a very sort period of time. I really realized how much of a different one person can make. - Chris Nordenson
