    Description

    Feed My Starving Children Packing Sessions - Eagan, MN

    Volunteers are needed for 1.5 or 1.75 hour packing sessions to hand-pack life saving meals for starving children around the world. We can take up to 140 people per packing session. We are open on Monday through Saturday each week.

    To volunteer, you must register at https://www.fmsc.org/get-involved/volunteer

    Christian non-profit Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) has tackled world hunger since 1987 by sending volunteer-packed, nutritious meals to 70 countries. These meals are specifically designed to reverse and prevent malnutrition and are used in schools, orphanages, clinics and feeding programs to break the cycle of poverty.

    During your packing session you will be participating in an assembly line process. With the help of volunteers, dry ingredients are poured into bags, the bags are weighed and sealed, then boxed and put onto pallets. If we have volunteers that are unable to stand for long periods of time, they are welcome to sit at tables and label bags. Your packing session includes a brief orientation and video followed by packing instructions. Your packing shift will conclude with a short closing. During that time you will learn how many meals you and your fellow volunteers have packed.
