We
at the Humanitarian Service Project wish to thank The Exchange Club of
Naperville for making a generous donation to benefit our Feed the Kids program.
Yesterday, Anna Zimmerman, a member of this wonderful club, stopped by HSP and contributed
an extremely charitable donation. The Exchange Club of Naperville, is
incredibly active in serving those in need, and support not only HSP but dozens
of other worthy local nonprofit organizations, primarily through the funds they
raise from Naperville’s Ribfest that occurs around the 4th of July. Each
year HSP is able to experience this great annual festival by joining in on the
fun and volunteering.

The money that has been donated by The Exchange Club
of Naperville will help to fund our Feed the Kids Program. Through Feed the Kids program HSP supplies 100
families (approximately 400 children) with 175 lbs of nutritious groceries during
the summer months of June, July, and August. During the school year many of
these families rely on the subsidized lunch programs, leaving them in great
need of nutritious food the summer months. Each family receives 15 varieties of
fresh fruits and vegetables, 3-6 25lb boxes of non-perishables, 7 frozen meats,
4-6 loaves of frozen bread, and nutritious snacks that will surely appeal to
children. The Exchange Club of Naperville has been a huge supporter of Feed the
Kids since 2006.
Once again we are extremely grateful for the support
and generosity that The Exchange Club of Naperville has shown us. It is through
the wonderful supporters and volunteers of the project that allow us to provide
the needs of those served by our programs.
