We need all the help we can get with our Rise Against Hunger: Food Packaging Mission Event taking place in Asbury Hall at 12:30 PM on Sunday, September 13. With this small but mighty effort, we help package 17,000 meals for underfed children across the globe. We will need lots of volunteers to help package these grains and vitamin meals, as well as seal them – so bring your family! Pizza and lemonade will be provided, and we will begin with a meal before transitioning directly into the scheduled work. Please register below for food! Walk-ins are welcome; however, please note that pizza will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Don’t miss out on the chance to help feed 17,000 hungry children with just two hours of volunteering!
