Health Catalyst day of service

Kevin's work has started to annually dedicate one day a year to service. In Salt Lake they had many events fro the employees to choose from but since we are in Idaho we came up with something for ourselves. A co-worker of Kevin's that lives locally ask people if they wanted to join her at the Idaho Food Bank Friday afternoon. Kevin signed us up and we all went. The company intended it to be a family thing so Kevin signed us all up. The girls had a really good attitude about it and didn't complain at all about giving their Friday afternoon up. Allison had been to the food bank before so she knew what to expect but not the rest of us. We got their and they gave us our assignment and we jumped right in. We were labeling food that did not have labels. The girls did a great job keeping busy and the work went by quickly. Ashley asked when we get to go back and do it again. It was a great experience and I do look forward to doing it again. We have been blessed with so much and it is nice to give back to those that have hit hard times. I think it is also important for the girls to see that not everyone has what they have and worry about where their next meal will come from.
After the food bank we headed to the movies to see Finding Dory. It has been a blessing working for Health Catalyst they care about their employees families and do these little things to show their appreciation to the employees and their families.
