Hope Packs!

A group packs Hope Packs at Food Bank in Bloomington, IL

Gather at Midwest Food Bank in Bloomington on Wednesday evening (September 7) to pack food items and notes of encouragement into HOPE PACKS.  We’ll work together to fill the packs. Volunteers will deliver the packs to the junior high and high school. The packs will be distributed to certain students who take one home for each weekend that school is in session. Our Hope Pack ministry began several years ago to serve food-insecure students at a local junior high and high school. For more information about the ministry or this packing event, contact us: [email protected]
