Albright Middle School Donates $900 and 15 Boxes of Food

Yesterday, the Humanitarian Service Project received a very generous donation from Albright Middle School in Villa Park.  Albright donated 15 boxes of food to be sorted and distributed in our warehouse. Albright’s Principal, Scott Jackson came from the school to Humanitarian Service Project to drop off the 15 boxes.  Not only were the boxes of food donated, the school also gathered $900.  The $900 will be put towards HSP’s purchasing of food for needy families and seniors in the Feed the Kids program and the Senior Citizen Project. This isn’t the first time in 2013 that Albright has donated to the Humanitarian Service Project.  Albright Middle School also gathered paper products for the Senior Citizen Project in March.

The timing of the food donation to HSP could not have been more perfect.  In June, we here at HSP will begin our Feed the Kids program.  Feed the Kids is a summer hunger relief program which provides groceries to 100 needy families (about 400 children) who would otherwise be malnourished during the summer months.  Feed the Kids runs during the months of June, July and August.  HSP gives many thanks to Albright Middle School and their willingness to donate towards Feed the Kids and the Senior Citizen Project.  The food and the monetary donation will go towards Feed the Kids program, and also the needy seniors in our Senior Citizen Project.

With so much on the horizon as Feed the Kids starts up, HSP needs volunteers to help us organize all the food we are preparing to send out. Any volunteers who can donate their time will be greatly appreciated.  If you are interested in volunteering at HSP, give us a call at 630-221-8340, or email us at hsp@humanitarianservice.org
