School is back in session! While most kids hate leaving the lazy days of summer behind, there are so many in the Heartland area that are glad to be back at school. Why? Because for them school is the one place where they can guarantee they will get a meal! No child should have to go hungry at home! Let's do what we can to help these children and their families in our community!
MOPS mamas are ready to party while we feed the need in Southeast Missouri. This event will take place September 30th from 4:00pm-8:00pm and it is to pack backpacks for Southeast Missouri Food Bank's BackPacks For Friday Program.
BackPacks For Friday is a child feeding program administered by the Southeast Missouri Food Bank that meets the needs of hungry children and their families when other food isn’t available such as weekends. The program is serving 350 students in 15 elementary schools.
The goal is to pack 11,000 bags!!!!!!!!!!
These children and their families need your help!
This event is hosted by Southeast Missouri Food
Bank and Retired Senior Volunteer Program /
Volunteer Intergenerational Center.If you would like to register for this service opportunity, please e-mail the MOPS Service Team Leader Heather at stipe_8@yahoo.com
