Clint Shuttlesworth I’d love to see a delegation from Valiant Church! I know you guys help local! Hope to see y’all soon!
Hi, I am volunteering for this event.
THANK YOU! We would like to express our deep gratification to Dr Leon Bromberg Charitable Trust for their recent charitable donation to FeedGalveston's September 22 Packaging Event in the Lyceum of Galveston Island!😊
Hi David! Thanks for reaching out! You can just show up at Lyceum of Galveston Island with your group! Also, it'd be great if you sent the coordinators a heads up notice as well (but not required): https://feedgalveston.org/contact-us/ THANK YOU!!!!!😀
Are helpful children welcome? I have tried to volunteer elsewhere with my kids before and there was an age requirement. We make homeless bags and pass them out as needed and I think this would be another fun way for us to serve the community.
If we want to help do we just show up that day or are there more details I can find somewhere?
Thank You, Everyone!Psalm 146:7 says that God gives food to hungry people. Caring for the hungry is an important way to show God’s compassion for those in need. Please consider joining Feed Galveston on Sept. 22 to package 50,000 meals for Galveston County Food Bank inside the Lyceum of Galveston Island at Noon!
We are very grateful for Steve Elliott and the Galveston Bay Parrot Head Club for their generous $500 donation to Feed Galveston presented to Donna Spencer at First Lutheran Church Galveston! Steve said he will bring hopefully as many as 20 Parrot Head members to our September 22 Meal Packaging Event in the Lyceum of Galveston Island! THANK YOU!! 😍
Update on our Go Fund Me. Thank you everyone that has contributed to our Go Fund Me account to help raise money for our packaged meal event coming up on September 22! So far we have raised $690 and are still short of our goal of $5,000. Only $1 provides for 4 packaged meals. Again, thank you for helping us feed the hungry in Galveston County thru the Galveston County Food Bank! 😁
Good Morning! Please help spread the word that we are needing monetary donations for our September 22 Packaging Event for Galveston County Food Bank! Currently we have only raised $330 toward our $5,000 requirement. Share our Go Fund Me campaign: www.gofundme.com/feed-galveston-packaging-event THANK YOU!!!Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.” (John 6:35) - When Jesus said he was the bread of life, he was speaking to people who knew what it was like being hungry most every day. Many people in Galveston County today are very food insecure and do not know where they will get their next meal. PLEASE CONSIDER donating to our FEED GAlVESTON September 22 Packaging Event in the Lyceum of Galveston Island for the Galveston County Food Bank. Currently we have only raised $330 for our $5,000 need. Thank You! DONATE HERE: https://www.gofundme.com/feed-galveston-packaging-event
Great way to help the food insecure on the island and in the county. I love this program!
Happy Monday! We are so grateful to be able to help the Galveston County Food Bank with our super fast food packaging system that brings our community volunteers together in a common cause: to help those who are food insecure. Being able to eat well is vital to a community's health! Thank You!
