General Description
Celebrate Good Deeds Day (a little later in the week) by experiencing a quick but life-changing 1.5 hours by volunteering with Dakota County and Feed My Starving Children. FMSC offers volunteers a one-of-a-kind experience. You’ll hand-pack rice, soy, dried vegetables and a nutritionally complete blend of vitamins and minerals into bags which are then sealed, boxed, placed on pallets and shipped to our incredible partners working hard to reach the neediest children around the world .
Through volunteering at FMSC, you’ll get the chance to impact hundreds of kids in just a few hours per packing shift. You’ll experience what it’s like to make a tangible difference today. Feed My Starving Children meals are produced by volunteers in Arizona, Illinois, Minnesota, Texas and all around the United States through MobilePack events.
