125,064 Meals prepard today for the children of Haiti



I was amazed today of all the volunteers that showed up today at The Urban Refuge Church in Minneapolis to help with packaging up food for the children in our schools in Haiti.
There were 5 shifts of people working from 9 to 5. This will be a huge help as we are in need of 1.3 million meals this year. The food was a mixture of rice, soy, dehydrate vegetables and a powdered mixture of vitamins and minerals. I will be back home on Tuesday and hope to post the pictures of all the children and adults that helped and more stats sometime over the next couple of days. All the food is brought in through an amazing organized named "Kids Against Hunger". I met with Richard, the founder of the organization on Friday and was inspired with his enthusiasm and vision of feeding all the starving people around the work. We are so great full that we are able to partner with them and the Urban Refuge Church. Thank you for making a difference!!!
