The Zee Zees Start a Food Drive

Zooga the Zee Zee is a real people person. So much so that she's the Official Liaison Between Interplanetary Peoples. It's an important job, and one she takes very seriously. Mostly because it means her job is to have lots of human friends and spend time with them! Zooga was meeting up with one of her human friends, Tanner, when he told her about the food drive his school was doing. Food drive? Zooga had never heard of this before, but it sounded right up the Zee Zees alley.

Zooga gathered some Zee Zee friends. She called up Mezlo, the Zee Zees chef, to cook up a great meal. She called Zeep, the closest thing Zee Zees have to a superhero, to help planning. Finally Zooga brought Tanner there to teach them what a food drive was all about.

Tanner explained that some people just don't have access to food and need food drives to give them food that they can save for a long time without it going bad, and that local food banks take in and distribute this food. The Zee Zees talked about it and agreed that, they were going to put together a food drive.

And, so the food drive was off! Zooga, Zeep, Mezlo, and Tanner were very proud of the nonperishable food drive they put together. Some of the Zee Zees old human friends showed up, but it was mostly new human friends, something Zooga was delighted about. Zooga mingled with the new faces, asking if this was a successful food drive and what they had brought. Everyone Zooga spoke to was wonderful. They complimented the event and told Zooga all about themselves and their lives.

Finally, it was time to deliver the collection of nonperishable food and Zooga was delighted. They had collected so much! She went to personally help drop the cans off at the food kitchen. When they arrived, Zooga saw another need: for people to help inside the food kitchen. She hopped into the back room to help sort the cans. At the end of the night, Zooga was glowing she was so happy with the work she had put in that day. She asked Zeep if this was what being a superhero felt and he assured her that it was.

The Zee Zees had managed to collect and give away a whole pile of canned and nonperishable food and along the way they had also made tons of new friends. Tanner and Zooga agreed, this was a successful food drive. Zooga couldn't wait to plan the next one.
