FEED MY STARVING CHILDREN

Hope IS Greater than any obstacle that may be in front of us right now – and we are motivated on mission to help Feed My Starving Children meet the hunger needs of children and communities across the globe.  Our Decatur Community stands committed to pack and provide much needed meals – anything we can do to raise awareness for the great need that still exists related to food insecurity across the globe is incredibly important to us.

Did you know your change and two hours of your time can transform a life? Are you ready to make a difference?

Get your family, friends, or coworkers together and get your team to the 2023 Feed My Starving Children Decatur Community MobilePack!  Hope is in your hands this September 21-23 as we celebrate 10 Years of the Decatur Community MobilePack in 2023!

With high demand due to war, natural disasters, and everyday need, reaching our goal of 248,000+ MannaPack Meals during this pack is again critical. Your donation in support of this pack and two hours of your time serving can help achieve this goal and beyond. We’re also excited to hit the benchmark of  2 MILLION MEALS packed in Decatur during this year’s event.

To expand our impact, we are also conducting a coinciding FOOD DRIVE during the month of September to help support local pantries and programs who serve kids and youth in our community. To date, we will support The Pantry at Richland Community College, Decatur Kids Bags of Hope, and South Shores Elementary (pending additional requests).

CLICK HERE for the list of needed items that you can donate to the FOOD DRIVE.
