"Feed My Starving Children" Volunteers Needed

Founded in 1987, Feed My Starving Children is a non-profit, Christian organization that is committed to feeding God's starving children hungry in body and spirit. Working with food scientists, FMSC developed MannaPack Rice which contains over 20 vitamins and minerals. Providing protein from extruded soy nuggets, these meals are inexpensive, easy to transport, contain no water or filler, and are prepared simply by boiling water. They provide everything a child needs to thrive, not just survive.

From November 17-20, Feed My Starving Children Make a Difference 2K11 will be packing 500,000 meals with the financial and physical help of local residents and organizations like Salem. Won't you help us purchase the ingredients and pack them for shipment around the world to the neediest of our neighbors? For just $0.24 per meal we can save and repurpose a human life!
