One example is a VISTA project in Salt Lake City. This project offers a unique way of providing food for lowincome people who traditionally enjoy eating carp. Sengteck Tan. a VISTA volunteer who grew up in Cambodia. catches carp which are readily available in Utah waters. He then transfers the live carp to holding tanks. Lowincome individuals. such as Asian refugees. can then purchase 40 pounds of fresh carp for a cost of $3. A prevalent. inexpensive source of nutritious food has been made available at a nominal cost to lowincome people. This is Just one of many examples in which volunteer efforts have aided the poor.
