Christian Academy launches initiative to fight hunger and poverty around the
world!
We are
partnering with humanitarian aid organization Convoy of Hope in a campaign to
help feed the impoverished around the world!
Our “One-Day” to Feed the
World campaign is November 18th a united act of compassion to help the poor and
suffering! Every dollar
contributed to Convoy of Hope can provide up to $7 worth of food and supplies
that is delivered through Convoy of Hope’s children’s feeding programs,
community outreaches and disaster relief efforts.
My heart and vision is to see our church and school reach-out locally,
nationally and globally – Jesus said “if
you have done it to one of the least of these you have done it to me”
Locally we are distributing
Thanksgiving baskets full of food to some families making sure they have all
they need to have a Thanksgiving meal for their families this year. If you would like to
Nationally, this ministry faith-based organization is responding to the Hurricane Sandy devastation
that occurred in the New York/NewJersey area. They are fast at work bringing emergency food, water, ice,
and supplies to victims of this disaster!
They have distributed already 150 tons of food to affected areas. The need is great, extensive and long
lasting!
Globally we are asking everyone to join us in Giving ONE DAYS WAGES on November 18th to help us feed children
around the world as well as sending supplies to areas that have suffered disasters.
Just think, with just “one day”,
you and your family can make a world of difference in a child's life. The
difference between hungry and happy. The difference between a grimace and a
grin. All it takes is one day's worth of wages to make that kind of difference.
One day like any other. One day of compassion. One day of sharing. One Day To
Feed The World!
Are you asking: “WHAT CAN I DO?”
Can you give One Day of your
life? Work One Day - Give One Day! Join us and many more on November 18th as we donate “one days” wages to assist this ministry in feeding the impoverished around the world!
