Rise Against Hunger Meal Packaging Event

VOLUNTEER Opportunity: Rise Against Hunger is a global movement to end hunger by empowering communities, nourishing lives and responding to emergencies. On March 19 we will again be partnering with our friends at Ooltewah UMC for a meal-packaging event coordinated to help feed tens of thousands of hungry children. We need many volunteers (ages 5 and up) to help pack the meals on Saturday morning. This is a great outreach opportunity for families to work together in a fun way to prepare nutritious meals for underserved communities and crisis situations around the world. Contact us for more details if you would like to serve.

“Before the first year at camp, it was the lowest part of my life. I had lost my mother and sister in a tragic car wreck. I was being bullied at school and was planning to commit suicide when I received an invitation with a scholarship to attend Breakaway camp. I decided to put off the suicide plan and attend camp. It was the best decision I ever made. I gave my life to Jesus at camp and then Breakaway helped me get involved with a local church. My life still has ups and downs but I know now that God has me no matter what.”

“I wouldn’t be where I am today if it wasn’t for Breakaway Outreach. My biological father was always incarcerated and I was sent into foster care. I started camp as a tiny little camper and now I get to serve as camp nurse! I graduated from Lee University with my Bachelor of Science in Nursing and I am currently working as a Nursery and Postpartum Nurse. Breakaway Outreach is exactly what it sounds like. It’s an outreach of family and community that all come together because we truly care about God’s children.”
