Feed My Starving Children Mega Pack!

Volunteers needed for FMSC Mega Pack!

The last time I went to church I found amazing announcement on the wall about upcoming FMSC Mega Pack which is going to be in MN Prior Lake in February, the goal is to pack 3 millions meals!!! Isn’t that great?! Can you imagine that? I am certainly going to go for a least one shift and help as much as I can, and you can help too. Follow them traveling around the US and maybe next month they will come to your city!

I hope they organize such events all over the country, and if you know about something like this share it in comments, and for more information about event see the link below:

Facebook page for my campaign!

Staying up to date with all the nowadays opportunities of social media all the GNML students created their Facebook community page, according to the specific social issue they want to find solutions for.

You can visit my Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/activelifeposition

Of course it is not enough just to create the Facebook page, you to attract audience to it and give people an information.

Just answering some questions I want to share with you two ideas - "How do I plan to use your Facebook Page to engage your audience for your “Social Media For Social Change"

- The first idea which came to my mind is to provide people with information about the volunteering opportunities in the community,city, country. It can be possible by posting all the different organizations addresses and contact information. Also, when the group will have enough users, they will be able to share personal observations and experience with other users which will help them to find the "best fit" places to help!

- Also posting all the latest news and updates about the world and everything what is going on. First most of the people spent tons of their free time on the Facebook and don’t use specific utilities or websites which provide them with latest information about interesting projects and campaigns. So, just sharing ideas, news and information about all kinds of different issues will attract people to the community service and make them active citizens! 

Thank you for your time, have a great rest of your day!=)

Inspirational story from family in Guatemala!

Working as a volunteer for the Feed My Starving Children Organization is an amazing feeling for me!
I wish I would volunteer there more often, but unfortunately it is not close to my house. and it takes a lot of time to get there. But every time I go there, I come back home with an amazing feeling of satisfaction and inspiration, you might ask why?
The reason is - that you get to meet all the volunteers who is ready to help others donating their time and sharing desire. Every time before the shift starts packing process, you get to watch this amazing video about one kid whose life was changed forever just because of the ONE MEAL a day, how crazy it is, all the people I know have at least two meals a day, when we say: " I am hungry", we basically mean that we did not have a breakfast, or maybe missed a lunch. For those kids it means not having a food for WEEKS, or simply have ONE meal a month.

One of the stories I found which will give me a inspiration and wish to visit FMSC one more time came from Guatemala, from the family who received food help from FMSC. Please read an article and volunteer at Feed My Starving Children organization, if you can!
