Summer is nearly here

Only 6 weeks remain in the school year! Summertime takes the Nutrition Club to another level as we transition from school deliveries to home deliveries. The children in the Nutrition Club face the same hunger issues in the summer as they do throughout the school year. As a matter of fact, many struggle even worse since they do not have everyday meals at school.

So, as summer approaches, plans are being made to begin the home delivery process of the Nutrition Club. Every Friday during the summer, volunteers will take a route that includes approximately 10 homes. They will have the opportunity to individually deliver each bag to each child. This is certainly bitter-sweet as you experience both the poverty and struggles of the children but also their smiles and excitement when you arrive.

If you would like to get involved this summer, email me at scott@sharedblessings.tv. We will be forming teams in the very near future. As always, we need financial support to make the whole process happen! You can donate online or by mailing to PO Box 328 / McAlester, OK 74502.

We are excited to announce that we have received commitments from 2 new groups for the 2010-2011 school year. We will now be able to expand to 6 schools overall!
