On Dec 20,two members of AYLUS and two parents participated in a Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) packing session. This was pretty straightforward as the non profit organization, FMSC already had everything set up and all we had to do was basically show up. We started off in a big group with tons of other volunteers each part of their own organization. Then a staff member went over some requirements and rules before we got split into group and sent to the packing stations. We washed our hands and the rest was pretty simple. We got to our station and started packing food. At the end we cleaned up before meeting up one last time all together with everyone to go over how many box/ bag we had packed etc.We filled very proud and happy ton pack food for those can’t afford them,I and Camilla and two parents was the fourth time packing up food for my starving children,we filled very delighted off this events.
Together we finished 89 boxes and packed 19,224 meals that can feed 53 kids for a year. Averagely, AYLUS group packed approximately 1232 meals that can feed 3.4 kids for a year.We are very proud of what we achieved.
