HungerFight supported our first food packing event at Memorial Presbyterian Church in St. Augustine in 2017. The event was a total success, involved all age groups in our church, and promoted a lasting sense of our outreach mission to our community. We will schedule another, larger one in 2018 and will ask HungerFight to support this one, too, because of the wonderful, personal, teamwork between our congregation and HungerFight. They truly live out Jesus' commandment to care for the poor and the hungry.
This non profit organization is helping the community in a positive way by feeding our hungry. I was very happy to be a part of helping my community in such a positive environment. We all worked together and cheered each other on. This concept is great. I didn't see anything that needed improvement.
I really enjoyed the point of this event and what it stands for. This is my second experience and would love to continue this again. The environment was also wonderful.
