HeartFELT (Filling Empty Little Tummies)

The mission of the HeartFELT (Filling Empty Little Tummies) Ministry

is to support the nutritional requirements of food insecure school students.

Students participating in free and reduced-cost meal programs at their schools receive

food throughout the school week, but may not have enough to eat over the weekends.
 
The HeartFELT program provides a bag of food each weekend at no cost to the families.
To continue our HeartFELT ministry (to two elementary schools and two middle schools), we invite yo’iu to participate as a sponsor by donating to the cost of providing meals to a child. The annual cost to provide meals to a child is $400 per school year. Options are available to donate for a full or half year, and contributions can be made annually, semi-annually or in monthly increments. You may also choose to offer a one-time gift (any amount) to support the HeartFELT ministry.
