On April 12, 2025, we volunteered alongside other AYLUS members at the non-profit organization Feed My Starving Children, starting at 7:15 PM. This Christian nonprofit is dedicated to ending hunger. A total of twelve volunteers participated in the event.
We packed Manna Pack rice, which consists of four key ingredients: vitamins, vegetables, soy, and rice. Volunteers were assigned various tasks, including labeling, working in the warehouse, packaging, and sealing, with clear instructions provided for each role. To make the experience more engaging, we took part in challenges to see which group could pack the most boxes while music played in the background. Our team worked at Table 3.
After approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes, we completed the food packaging and began cleaning up. In total, we packed 97 boxes, amounting to 20,952 meals, enough to feed 57 children for an entire year.
