As the fires continue in Australia and news reports continue to fill minds and thoughts with images and details of the unrelenting devastation, we can, at times, feel helpless with the unconscionable sum of homes lost, lives lost, firefighters put at risk, animal populations depleted, if not destroyed, and habitat loss, ensuring future animal loss.
Putting together hygiene kits helps us satisfy some of the basic needs for our neighbors experiencing homelessness or displacement. Please join together in this all company event by creating essential hygiene kits using all of your collected donations from the 2019 Toiletry Drive. One kit for one person can change a life.
Help turn hunger into hope with your own two hands by packing nutritious meals for hungry children around the world.
Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) is a Christian nonprofit dedicated to providing nutritious meals to children worldwide. FMSC meals are hand-packed by volunteers and sent to an incredible network of partner organizations who distribute them to those in need. Nearly 1.2 million volunteers packed more than 333 million FMSC meals in 2017. More than 90 percent of total donations go directly to feed kids.
In one 2 hour session last year, Cubex was able to pack enough meals to feed 1 child for a year! This is an energetic, fast paced, team-oriented, family friendly event. There is opportunity for everyone to participate with the end goal of providing nutrition to children in need around the world.
The Salvation Army is enlisting community partners, like CUBEX, for the 2019 Heat Relief Water Drive. This program supports the Extreme Heat Emergency Plan throughout the Valley of the Sun, when high temperatures are severely dangerous. The focus of this program is to collect cases of standardized 16.9-ounce water bottles and provide hydration, respite, and safety information to anyone in need. Team up this May for this historically successful drive.
