Project Helping Kindfulness for Kids Event

The mission of Colorado Feeding Kids is to significantly reduce the number of hungry children in Colorado and feed starving children throughout the world. Nearly 1 in 5 Colorado kids may not know when or where they will get their next meal.

The solution is a revolutionary food package that has been developed by some of the world’s leading food scientists at Cargill, Pillsbury, General Mills and ADM. This one package provides six nutritionally complete servings to feed starving children around the world as well as the hungry here at home. All for the low cost of 25 cents per serving!

WHAT WILL WE BE DOING?

Project Helping volunteers will be breaking into groups of 10 and working on packing a specific type of meal for a family in need. As space is limited, make sure to register before participating in this great event!
