We have signed on to have 500 volunteers serve together on February 3, from 6 p.m. – 8 p.m. Make a commitment to join us at Scheels Arena and help feed undernourished children around the world.
Turn Hunger Into Hope
On Friday, February 3 from 6 p.m. – 8 p.m. at Scheels Arena we will pack as many Manna Meals as possible during the Fargo-Moorhead Feed My Starving Children Mobile Pack event.
Our city-wide goals are to see 12,000 volunteers pack 2,000,000 meals in 3 days at the Scheels Arena. In case you missed it, that is 2.5 million meals!
To accomplish such a big dream, we are working with area churches, non-profits, and businesses to raise $480,000.
During this packing session, each volunteer will pack an average of $50 of food, which provides 216 meals and feeds a starving child for seven months! That’s less than 25 cents per meal!
Serving Together
Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) is a Christian nonprofit committed to feeding God’s children hungry in body and spirit. The approach is simple: children and adults hand-pack meals specifically formulated for undernourished children. FMSC meals are donated to partners worldwide and distributed every day in schools, orphanages, clinics, and feeding programs to deliver hope.
