Thank you to all the super enthusiastic children, youth, and adults who helped us in August pack up 155 meal packs for our 35 Halley ES students whose families experience food insecurity. We are truly a community in action for food justice!

Join us again on Sunday, Oct. 4 for our next meal packing event. We will meet in the Sanctuary a short time after the Sunday service, and within about 45 minutes the food items will be packed into gallon-size bags, ready for next-day delivery to the school

It helps us plan when you use SignUp Genius to let us know ahead what food items you wish to donate by SIGNING UP HERE. Then drop them off in the bins located inside the “collection closet” by Sunday, Oct. 4.

Meal packing Sundays this church year will be held Oct 4, Nov 1, Dec 6, Jan 3, Feb 7, Mar 7, Apr 4, May 2, June 6.

No Child Goes Hungry/Accotink is sponsored by AUUC’s Social Justice Committee and our Children and Youth Spiritual Development Committee.
