Beyond Karate Service Project December 07, 2019
Beyond Karate Service project was a huge success. We have collected 227 pounds of canned and boxed food that was donated to Good Samaritans of Garland, Inc. - "Good Sam".
In addition several good samaritans from Beyond Karate sorted food at the local food pantry (Good Samaritans of Garland) and had a lot of fun doing it on Saturday morning .
