It's about us serving others in mission
Kids’ Food Basket is a force for attacking childhood hunger in greater Grand Rapids. This organization began over 8 years ago by serving 125 kids each school day through its sack supper program and now serves over 3700 kids each day. Sack suppers are evening meals that provide 1000 calories and 5 food groups–nutrition that’s critical to the development of kids’ brains and bodies.
During the school year, Genesis provides help packing sack suppers. We need 6-10 volunteers, ages 5 and above, for two hours. This is an ongoing ministry during the school year and a great opportunity for your whole family to engage in an activity that gives back to the community in a direct way. Kids’ Food Basket is located at 1300 Plymouth Ave SE north of Leonard between Ball and Perkins. Visit www.kidsfoodbasket.org |
Flat River Outreach Ministries (FROM) is a Christian non-profit organization located in Lowell, Michigan. Our mission is to help our neighbors in need by walking alongside them; helping them improve their quality of life. FROM gathers the community around our neighbors in need, helping families and individuals keep food on the table, a roof over their heads, their utility bills paid, and so much more.
Once or twice a year we help staff FROM's Mobile Food Pantry, which distributes healthy food to those living in the Lowell Area School District in need of food in partnership with other local churches & Feeding America. Visit www.fromlowell.org |
