About Feed My Starving Children

Founded in 1987, Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) is a Christian non-profit that provides nutritionally complete meals specifically formulated for malnourished children. Their process is simple: Donations given fund the meal ingredients. Volunteers hand-pack the meals. Meals are donated to FMSC food partners around the world, where kids are fed and lives are saved!

Fast Facts:
BFC/FMSC Mobile Pack
Sunday, January 26
2-4pm; 5-7pm
Volunteer registration begins on Sunday, January 5

Details:
BFC has invited Feed My Starving Children, a faith-based non-profit from Minnesota, to come to our Family Life Center on Saturday, Janury 26, to participate in a MobilePack event to pack over 100,000 meals for malnourished children. These meals have been designed by Cargill Foods, one of the top five grain companies in the world, for children in food-insecure areas of the world. These “Manna Packs,” packaged meals that require only water and heat, are provided free in 70 countries, including Eswatini. Anyone five years of age or older is invited to serve in a two-hour session on Janury 26, either 2-4pm, or 5-7pm. We are looking for 544 volunteers and we'd love for you to be a part!

Childcare:
During the 5-7pm session, BFC Kids will provide care for children up to 4 years of age. Kids can be checked in at the BFC north entrance beginning at 4:30pm, and must be picked up by 7:15pm. Gluten-free and nut-free snacks will be provided. Parents are also welcome to provide sack dinners for their children. All parents will need to pre-register their children by contacting Kim Rogers at krogers@bethanynaz.org no later than Sunday, January 19.

*Volunteers under the age of 18 and serving as part of a non-family group (class group, youth group, etc.) must serve with an adult, observing the following minor-to-adult ratios:
Kindergarten through second grade: one student to one adult
Third through sixth grade: three students to one adult
Seventh through ninth grade: four students to one adult
Tenth through twelfth grade: five students to one adult

There is no minor-to-adult ratio for children serving with their own family.

Packing sessions are now FULL, but you can still get involved! Sign up for the set-up or clean-up crew below:
