Join us on Saturday, November 19 from 10:00am-12:00pm as we pack 10,000 meals for Stop Hunger Now! Stop Hunger Now meal packing events are tremendous service opportunities for volunteers of any age. During the event, we pack meal pouches with non-perishable food that, when added to water, provides a full and healthy meal to hungry people around the world. Through Stop Hunger Now’s efficient packing process, we can pack massive amounts of food in very little time, but it takes volunteers to do it! Whether it’s pouring rice, weighing grains, sealing bags, or taping up boxes to be shipped around the world, there’s a way you can plug in. You can register for the event following the link below, where you can also donate to help cover the cost of the meals. Each meal is $0.29 to pack, so every little donation can go a really long way! $2.90 feeds 10 people $14.95 feeds 50 people $29.00 feeds 100 people $87.00 feeds 300 people Register and donate for Stop Hunger Now at Benson Baptist Church...
Hunger is no stranger to Benson, and Backpack Buddies is one way we can help. Each week, our church prepares 50+ bags of food for students at Benson Elementary who don’t have much to eat at home. On Fridays, the children take home their bags, which are filled with enough food to keep them full throughout the weekend. This is an incredibly rewarding ministry, and you can be involved in several ways: You can help us pack bags on Wednesdays during the school year. We meet at 5:30pm in the pantry next to our kitchen. You can donate food and bring it to the church—click here for a flier listing needed items.
