Our relationship began with this incredible organization last fall. You may remember the special sunflower ornaments made from Kiev newspapers. Novi is focused on assisting children affected by the war in Ukraine, who are deprived of basic needs; including safety, education and nutrition, and are exposed to violence, displacement and emotional trauma. Novi’s “Life kits” help children develop self-regulation skills through structured adult-led interventions, and they collaborate with local organizations to prioritize sustainability and building partnerships that focus on prevention and intervention for vulnerable children.

November 16, 9:00 – 11:00 am
The Mission and Youth Ministries Committees are working together to sponsor a Service Saturday at Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) in Schaumburg. Every year, millions of children die from preventable causes such as pneumonia, diarrhea, malaria and undernutrition. Hunger is still causing nearly half of the deaths in children under 5 years old. From this data, we estimate at least 6,200 children die each day from causes related to undernutrition. This is heartbreaking.
FMSC believes hope starts with food. As a Christian nonprofit, FMSC is dedicated to seeing every child whole in body and spirit. FMSC works with food distribution partners that stay with communities for the long haul, empowering them to move from relief to development. FMSC meals are developed by food science and nutrition professionals to supplement nutritional needs and reduce problems with malnutrition.
Nutrition allows children to grow, thrive and develop to their full potential. You can sign-up by scanning the QR code, or go to the Feed My Starving Children website and sign up with code 93VD5B. Contact Rev. Rebekah Anderson for more details.
