Feed the Kids is on the Horizon


We at the Humanitarian Service Project wanted to take some time to update you on some of the more general happenings around HSP. With June here we are in full swing getting ready for our Feed the Kids Project. With our first monthly distribution day on the 13th, everyone at HSP, from staff, interns, to our wonderful volunteers, are busy preparing to reach each of the 100 needy families with 175 pounds of nutritious groceries. Of course, once the June distribution day is in the rear view mirror, we will be busy, albeit happily busy, preparing for our July and August distribution days as well.

Fresh produce for the families in our Feed the Kids Project from one of last year’s distribution days.

In the summer months of June, July, and August, subsidized lunch programs through schools that needy families rely on are not active. Our Feed the Kids Project was created in order to provide needy families with the nutritious food they need during this difficult period of the year. As you can probably guess, in order to accomplish our goal of ending hunger in the summertime for these 100 needy families, HSP has been supported by a number of wonderful volunteers and generous donors. We want to thank them for helping us make Feed the Kids possible. If you too would like to be involved in reaching out to these needy families through our Feed the Kids Project, please call us at 630-221-8340.
