Can Food Drive!! (Help feed the hungry)


Hello Everyone!

I just wanted to let you all know that my church, Deer Valley Worship Center, is partnering together with the Phoenix Rescue mission to help feed the hungry!

This is a chance to truly make a difference! Josh and I are collecting all non-perishable foods- canned foods, baby food, diapers and more. I believe recent statistics have shown that 1 out of every 5 kids go to bed hungry every night! We are determined as a church and community to change these statistics drastically!

If you are interested in helping with this cause, you can find out more from the Phoenix Rescue Mission or through our church, Deer Valley Worship Center. If you would like to donate any non-perishable foods, please feel free to email me at scrable@asu.edu and we can arrange a time for me to come pick them up. Your support mean so much!

Beginning this week, Josh and I will go to all of our neighbors' homes. We will begin by introducing ourselves as their neighbors. Then, we are going to ask them if they would like to donate any non-perishable foods for the Phoenix Rescue Mission. We will make it clear that we are not selling anything and that we can't accept money, but that their donation of food would be greatly appreciated. We will let them know that we can come pick up the food three days later. When we come to pick up the food from our neighbors, we will ask them if they would be willing to do this again in a couple months. This cause not only helps feed the hungry but it enables us to get to know our neighbors. We can build strong relationships by simply getting to know each other while helping others.

Great things will happen as a result of this meaningful rescue mission!!

Lets make a difference together!
