FMSC VISION

With God’s help, Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) will strive to eliminate starvation in children throughout the world by helping to instill compassion in people to hear and respond to the cries of those in need.

FMSC MISSION STATEMENT

Feeding God's Starving Children Hungry in Body and Spirit

About Us

Thousands of Haddonfield-area volunteers of all ages have hand-packed hundreds of thousands of meals consisting of vitamins, dehydrated vegetables, soy, and rice, which were shipped to one of dozens of developing nations. The price of each meal's ingredients is 22 cents - It Takes a Village raises all the money necessary to purchase, pack, and share the ingredients.

Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) is a Minnesota-based Christian non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that is dedicated to getting nutrition to starving and malnourished children all over the world. The recipient of Four Stars from Charity Navigator for the 9th consecutive year, FMSC ranks higher than 99% of all rated charities in trustworthiness and efficiency. 

First brought to Haddonfield by First Presbyterian Church, MobilePack events have been hosted by Haddonfield Council of Churches since 2016. FMSC brings all ingredients and supplies to us, and the meals are packed assembly-line style by small groups, now in the National Guard Armory in Cherry Hill. Participants include families, civic organizations, clubs, schools, churches and synagogues, and businesses.

FMSC provides a deeply meaningful service opportunity. Participants are able to work together for a finite period of time and with a specific, high-value outcome. At the end of every volunteer session the group knows exactly how many meals were produced to eliminate hunger in the world. In a uniquely experiential and fun way, the FMSC volunteer experience engages hearts, hands, and minds and fulfills the need of the giver to give.
