Girl Scout Troop 10512 (Eden Prairie, MN) volunteered this week at Feed My Starving Children, a nonprofit organization that packs meals formulated specially for starving children and ships them to more than 60 countries around the world. The troop helped pack 8,424 meals – enough to feed 23 kids for one year!
Our first service projects of the year was a great success! Seven girls, as well as their families and leaders, joined other volunteers at Feed My Starving Children to pack nutritious meals for children around the world. The result was 7,992 meals (enough to feed 22 children for a year) packed in two hours. Afterward we were allowed to help say a prayer over the meals before they left. We also got to see how many Girl Scout Brownies could fit in a sack which holds a ton of rice. If you’ve been there, you will certainly remember, “chicken, veggies, soy, rice!” We would encourage every troop to try out this great service project. Our girls are already planning their next trip back!
Girls who attended: Ana, Analise, Anna, Ellie, Emma, Leah, and Paula.
