| | I borrowed this page from Cukierski Family They are asking you to provide name of your local food bank/pantry and donations if possible...TOGETHER we can make a difference ~Charity333 What if you knew someone was hungry? What would you do? What would Jesus do? We asked ourselves these very questions and decided we needed to do something immediately!  Our
Food Bank Outreach Program
"Because no one should go hungry."  In Memory of my mother, Christine Russ, 06-09-46 to 10-06-08. She had a heart for all those in need of help. She poured her heart and soul into operating Holy Family's Food Bank right up until she passed away. May her legacy live on.
Rest in peace, Mom...we've got your work covered!
Our Food Bank Outreach Project...
"Because no one should go hungry"
Do you know a food bank in need of food to feed the hungry?
During these tough economic times, when so many folks are losing their jobs, we could no longer sit back and watch helplessly! Our family and our Apostolate are now reaching out to those who do not have enough food for their families.
Many folks may not have experienced what it is like to not have the basic neccesities (such as food), but I did growing up.
Although I never went completely hungry, we did experience a time when there was barely enough food in the house to feed us. My Mom's good friend came to the rescue. But what if she had not? We would have then experienced "real hunger". This act of kindness played a role in my mothers love of helping others. As she always said, " No one should ever go hungry".
What we're doing: On the 7th of each month we will select 7 Food Banks to which we will donate a total of fourteen cases of needed goods (2 cases each) . You can get the goodwill going by suggesting a food bank and we'll take care of the rest! You can help in two ways:
FIRST: To get started, simply send us the name of your local Food Bank with the address. We must have the EXACT address to make sure it is received. Email it to me. Go here:
Food Bank Page SECOND: Kindly, consider a donation to help your less fortunate brothers and sisters in Christ. Many folks are out of work and I personally know MANY families that are suffering.
Donate and receive a free gift for helping us to help others in need! (PS: We are placing our order for FOOD to go to the Food Banks, tomorrow! Please, help out if you can! -There are hungry children right here in America! Nearly 12 million children are at risk of going to bed hungry tonight. Imagine how a parent must feel in such a situation?? -1.2 million people went to foodbanks in the state of Washington last year (and it is much higher for other states..I only have stats on Washington at the moment)
-Hunger kills more people worldwide then AIDS and Malaria combined!
-Over 100 million children do not have enough vitamin A.
-At a local foodbank, 60 percent of the parents said they skipped meals so their kids could eat (I know this to be true for alot of America) -It's not just "food"..but GOOD food that needs to be donated. The apostolate will not donate nutrient deficient foods.
