MYM has reserved some dates for the rest of year to volunteer at Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) as part of a community service and awareness project. We have limited spots for this year so please sign up with your children to assist in this effort.


Meeting Time JUNE: 6/13/2009 7:00:00 PM - 9:00:00 PM

At FMSC, as we package meals for the world's hungriest children we hope to discover a deep sense of service and community. According to FMSC, volunteers often are surprised at the number of meals they are able to pack in a short time, realizing that each meal feeds a child for a day. In 2008 volunteers packed 73.6 million meals that were distributed in over 45 countries!
