Benevolent Fund Donations

FBCG collected $15,979.66 during weekend services January 16/17 to help Feed My Starving Children add extra shipments of meals for Haiti. Feed My Starving Children donated 25 million meals to Haiti in 2009, making Haiti the number one receiver of meals. FBCG regularly serves at the Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) warehouse in Aurora. On Wednesday, January 13, 60 students served and on Saturday, January 16th, 160 adults & children served. Learn more about donating to the FMSC Haitian Response Plan on the Feed My Starving Children website.

You can still donate to Feed My Starving Children's Haiti relief effort by writing a check to FBCG and note Haiti in the memo line. You can also include your donation in your church offering envelope - just note Haiti and the amount of your donation.

On Saturday, January 16th, FBCG served at Feed My Starving Children (FMSC)  in Aurora.  We packed 304 total boxes - which is 65,664 meals. That is enough to feed 180 children for a year!

FMSC is a Christian non-profit organization committed to feeding God's starving children hungry in body and spirit. The approach is simple: children and adults hand-pack meals formulated specifically for starving children, and FMSC ships the meals to more than 60 countries around the world.
