Feed My Starving Children

Announcements

Join a group of St. Luke’s members at the Schaumburg Feed My Starving Children location on Saturday, January 11th from 2:30-4:30 p.m.
Please plan to arrive 10-15 minutes early.
FMSC offers volunteers a one-of-a-kind experience. You’ll hand-pack rice, soy, dried vegetables and a nutritionally complete blend of vitamins and minerals into bags which are then sealed, boxed, placed on pallets and shipped to our incredible partners working hard to reach the neediest children around the world. Through volunteering at FMSC, you’ll get the chance to impact hundreds of kids in just two hours per packing shift. You’ll experience what it’s like to make a tangible difference today.

Please sign up using this link:

It’s a fun event for the whole family, however, a parent or adult must be present. The minimum age to volunteer is 5 years old.

Please reach out to Laura Heinrich with any questions (Heinrich71@gmail.com)
