Over the past two
days, HSP has had the pleasure of hosting two volunteer groups that graciously
gave their time to support our programs. Yesterday, the Panther Chapter of the
Young Men’s Service League (YMSL) lent their support and today, we were joined
by volunteers from American Family Insurance. YMSL is a mother/son service
group in which mothers and their teenage sons bond over volunteering and
service projects. Yesterday, the group had 6 volunteers that devoted their time
to sort non-perishable food items.
American Family Insurance encourages their associates to
devote their time and energy by helping and donating to charities. The group of
9
volunteers came and created 75 boxes of non perishables weighing a total of
1,875 lbs. With American Family Insurance and our other supporters, HSP will distribute
these boxes of food to help needy families during the Christmas season. We
would like to thank them for helping us out and we appreciate what they do in
supporting charities throughout the world.
Through our annual Christmas Offering, HSP serves 350
families with nutritious groceries and provides Christmas gifts to over 1,600
children. Volunteer groups like YMSL and American Family Insurance make a big
difference in the community through their service. If you too would like to be
involved in any of our programs at HSP during our Christmas Offering season,
please give us a call at 630-221-8340.
