We provide these materials to your congregation free of charge, for the purpose of raising hunger awareness and raising financial support for the gleaning and feeding ministries of the Society of St. Andrew.
The Society of St. Andrew involves people of all ages in hands-on mission and service, feeding their hungry neighbors by gleaning (picking, digging, or gathering) and bagging fresh fruits and vegetables that otherwise would go to waste. Each year more than 30,000 volunteers roll up their sleeves with SoSA, putting more than 80 million servings of produce on the tables of people in this country who need nourishing food most.
Your VBS mission offerings will make this work possible. Every 3¢ given will put one serving of healthy food on the table, so it is easy for your congregation to have a significant impact on people's lives!
Living blessings,
Betty Easter
Director of Church Relations

| The Society of St. Andrew is a national nonprofit hunger-relief ministry that rescues 25-30 million pounds of fresh, nutritious, excess produce each year that would otherwise go to waste for various marketing reasons. This food is then distributed to critical feeding agencies across the country at no cost to the agencies or the hungry people they serve. More information about the Society of St. Andrew and its hunger-relief programs - Gleaning Network, Potato & Produce Project, and Harvest of Hope is available online at EndHunger.org. |
