Help Hungry Kids
Provide Meals to Kids
HHK stands for Helping Hungry Kids. Each week 180 packs are sent home in students backpacks at Hutchison Elementary School that they can eat over the weekend. These students have been identified as in need of food assistance. The Elementary School is in our neighborhood and feeding children that have little to eat over the weekends is our purpose.
This ministry is run by dedicated volunteers who package monthly on Friday afternoons. Sometimes, special groups will work with the volunteer coordinators to create a different packing time to involve more volunteers. Please check the church calendar to see when HHK packaging is happening each month.
If you are available and interested, please sign up by contacting Donna Porter at dporter@florisumc.org.
Donate Food & Supplies
We ask for specific food donations to be dropped off in the blue bins at Floris UMC in the Gathering Space.
For more information, contact Donna Porter at dporter@florisumc.org.
Donate Your Time
Packaging usually takes place on the first Friday of the month. We set-up from 10:30 a.m.-12 p.m and package from 12:30-2:30 p.m. To help during one of these times, select a date and sign up.
