May - General Membership Meeting

Hands On Activity - Assembling Power Packs

​MONDAY, May 20
Location: TBD
7:00 - 9:00 pm
Please join us to make Power Packs for Food for Others in Fairfax County at the May 20 Membership Meeting.

Food for Others is an important part of Northern Virginia’s safety net for those needing food when an emergency strikes, and for the growing number of working poor who are unable to make ends meet and need to supplement their inadequate food supplies.

We're going to help by making 200 Power Packs. Power Packs are distributed through 29 Fairfax County elementary schools for 1400 school-aged children every week to eat over the weekend. For more details on the program, click here. 

We've been speaking of doing a hands on activity at a meeting and this is your chance, not only to participate, but ensure we can make the 200 Packs!

                                                     Please sign up for one or several slots of designated items.

                                                                                   Each Pack contains:
                                                                                   * 2 breakfast items       
                                                                                   * 4 lunch/dinner items
                                                                                   * 2 snack items                                                                                                          
                                                                                   * 2 drinks    

NDWC will be purchasing the drink portion of the packs. Please sign up to bring the other items for the Power Packs:

(Recommendation to purchase your items from Target, Costco or Amazon, though all of the items can be found at your local grocery store. Use the NDWC Amazon Smiles link (https://smile.amazon.com) and the club will receive a portion of the proceeds!

We hope you'll join us, and thank you in advance for your support in this project.

We're also still looking for someone to host our May 20th NDWC meeting, with a dining room or large island counter space to assemble the power packs. Please contact Erika Keough if you'd be willing to host.

Besides an opportunity to see old and new friends before the summer, we will present the checks to our 2018-2019 beneficiaries at this meeting and we will vote on the NDWC slate of officers for 2019-2020.
