MARK YOUR CALENDARS:
The August project will be held on Thursday, August 26th, from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM. Please bring your children to this project so they may participate in this worthwhile cause (minimum age is 5 years). The session begins with an orientation about FEED MY STARVING CHILDREN. Their mission is committed to feeding starving children worldwide. Volunteers hand-pack nutritious meals made up of rice, soy, vitamins and dehydrated vegetables and partner with relief organizations world-wide. Volunteers need to wear closed-toed shoes for safety reasons.
Breaking from LLH tradition, to volunteer for the August project, we must commit in advance the number of volunteers who will participate. (Our group is limited to 15 adults and 10 children.)
