Packing Food bags for children in community.
Each week children will receive a healthy bag of kid friendly food. This is to help children of low income families in the neighborhood with food. The food is strictly for the children. This is not a food pantry. We only distribute bags once a week.

Mission Statement
Our program reaches out to our community in their needs.
Description
Holy Spirit’s Dove’s Nest after school Program started in 2001 with homework help and snacks. A few years later, we got together with The Greater Berks Food Bank and started a "Kids Cafe" with free meals for all children. For many years we gave out a Food Bank sponsored "Weekender Bag" in which there was enough food for a child to get through the weekend.
Well, this year 2018-2019 school year the Dove’s Nest of Holy Spirit Lutheran Church and the Olivets Boys & Girl’s Club are partnering together to make a great program even better.
Our program will be open Monday through Friday 3:00 - 5:30pm throughout the school year. This year we will offer a meal, homework help, Reading help, Crafts, Snacks, play games and be a safe haven for kids. A large amount of our helpers are volunteers. All volunteers will receive forms for Clearances in which you will be given out by our staff.
