the Week in Rock for Hunger

Happy New Year, and welcome to the first week in Rock for Hunger of 2009! Thank you for all your support in 2008 and helping us be the change we want to see in our community! This year we have many great goals and plans in store which include field trip programs for less fortunate children, the first issue of Talk 4 Hunger, and hopefully the grand opening of our Dreams Center. Before we get to all that, check out what we have going on this week in Rock for Hunger:

MONDAY – Food Sharing for the Homeless
We are approaching our 100th consecutive weekly Food Sharing with week #95 this weeks. Come join us at our weekly food sharing at Lake Eola in Downtown Orlando this Monday at 6:45pm. We meet across from Panera Bread where the benches are and begin setting up. Meals are always served from 7pm-8pm. Feel free to bring drinks, utensils, plates, or canned goods for future weeks. Also, we are always in need of Food Sharing Committee Members, so we can continue building our new programs. Please let us know if you want to get more involved: chris@rockforhunger.org.

WEDNEDAY – Intern Orientation
Board Members and Volunteers, we are excited to announce that we will have six interns for the Spring 2009 semester who are going to spend 10-12 hours a week in helping grow our mission. We are meeting at 5:30pm at the Endagon Offices and Board Members Greg, Logan, and myself are already planning to be there. Feel free to come by to meet our interns or send us anything you’d like us to discuss: chris@rockforhunger.org.

SATURDAY – Storage Clean-up
Christmas and Thanksgiving have been great to us! However, we have a lot of new clothes, food, and other supplies that need to be organized in our storage. WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!! If there is only one thing you do this week to help us, make it this day. We need 4-6 volunteers to help with our storage clean-up day. Please e-mail Chris to sign-up: chris@rockforhunger.org.

That is all we have for this week. Please keep an eye out for the first Rock for Hunger Fest 4 Committee meeting in January, the Talk 4 Hunger Launch Party, and a Bowl-a-Thon coming soon.
