Paris Half-Marathon

They did it! Last Sunday, they ran the Paris Half-Marathon. Congrats to the three Hamilton College students Mercedes Girona ‘20, Andrew Wheeler ‘20 and Wade Steely ‘20 for their performance! (p.c.: Ashley Huntington ‘20)

My favorite part of the internship at the Secours Populaire was the two weeks I spent at Rue Montcalm, theirfood pantry. In the morning I stocked shelves in the basement, where they keep meticuloustrack of every single food/toiletry item they have. [...] They provide lunch thereand everyone eats together in the kitchen, which was a really wholesome and uniquely Frenchexperience. In the afternoons they open for business, and I helped hand out a full shoppingcart’s worth of products to everyone who came through."
