Feed My Starving Children – Mobile Packing Event April 1 & 2, 2016
Our Mobile Packing event is quickly coming up on us! Over 2 days, we will have approximately 500 volunteers at the CEB helping us to pack meals for distribution to orphanages, schools and organizations in need across the globe. We are now assembling our Feed My Starving Children team and are in need of leaders for the following areas:
· Promotion — to reach folks in our local community
· Prayer
· Fundraising (although we have funding for 2015, we need to raise funds to support our event next year)
· Logistics — managing supplies, coordinating fork lift drivers and volunteers to set up and clean up during the event
· Volunteer Coordination — help to recruit volunteers, work with online registration system and manage volunteer rosters during the event
· Hospitality — greet, guide and direct packing volunteers, coordinate refreshments for volunteers
Please contact me if you, or someone you know, can help with one of these teams!
