In January, Feed the Hungry volunteers dedicated more than 50 hours to assembling 4,900 packets of school supplies to be given out to children in kindergarten and primary schools in the communities where we operate a school kitchen.
Three Kings Day is the traditional day of holiday gifting in Mexico. Volunteers distributed the gifts to schools far and wide over a five-day period during that week. For most of these children, the packet of school supplies is the only gift they receive.
Distribution day is one of our favorite days of the year, when we get to see the smiles of joy when the little ones receive their “regalos.”
