Upcoming Events
FMSC volunteering and Holiday Happy Hour
We would like to get into the holiday spirit by volunteering at Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) in Chanhassen. If you haven’t heard of FMSC, it is a non-profit organization that buys and packages food for children that don’t have enough to eat in countries across the world. This was a very popular event last year! We will also be meeting beforehand for a Holiday Happy Hour at Houlihan’s in Chanhassen.
We have 15 volunteer spots to fill, hope you can make it! Children are allowed to volunteer (5 years and above) with adult supervision.
