Friday we went with Maddi's dance group to Feed My Starving Children. We've wanted to go there as a family but have never been able to go so I was so happy when the dance group organized a time to go. Not everyone from the dance company could make it, but here is the group that went.
We all had so much fun and in the hour that we packaged the food, we packed 83 boxes which is enough food for 49 children to eat for a year. They showed us pictues of children that have eaten the food and it's amazing how quickly they gain weight and get healthier. They said 18,000 children die everyday ages 5 and under from starving. Unbelievable!
This is Maddi with Emily. She was taking class at Nouveau last year but in another dance company. This year she'll be in Maddi's company and Maddi is so excited to have some younger girls. There are 2 other girls her age this year too!
Maddi got to do the chicken formula, veggies, and also the soy and rice scooping. I opened the bags and got them filled and then Cade weighed them and added or took away rice as needed. We are all looking forward to going back again.
