ORGANIZATION: Food for the Hungry

FH Logo

Volunteers at Food for the Hungry will mostly be helping our Child Sponsorship Team to help facilitate relationships between children and their sponsors. We have over 120,000 sponsored children in 17 countries all over the world.

A volunteer will help to build these relationships by assembling packets, stuffing envelopes, and paying attention to detail (matching up numbers and names) and occasionally they will help maintain our filing system which requires potentially longer periods of standing. Most of the work will be administrative, but without the help of volunteers our sponsors would not be able communicate effectively with the children.

Currently we are looking to gain volunteers reading child sponsorship letters and sorting out letters based on communities and other details (training provided). This can be a sit down position.

We are currently only able to have volunteers between the hours of 9am to 4:30pm Monday through Friday. Select Saturdays may be available for large groups upon request.

IF YOU NEED HOURS FOR A GCU CLASS, THIS IS THE PLACE!

Mission Statement

To walk with churches, leaders and families in overcoming all forms of human poverty by living in healthy relationship with God and His creation.

Description

Food for the Hungry (FH) is a Christian organization serving the poor globally since 1971. We reflect the love of Christ in short-term emergency relief and long-term community developement to end world hungry.

FH focuses on helping children and suffering communities. We support churches, leaders and families in caring for children. As communities grow spiritually, economically, and in healthy practices, children grow up with hope for their future.

Our programs are designed with input from the poor. Our experts respectfully bring new practices in agriculture, health, child development and more to impoverished communities. The result is innovation and long-lasting relationships.

More than 90 percent of the 2,000 FH staff members are citizens of the 23 countries we serve around the world. We partner with the poor and respect their culture.
