Being healthy enables people, especially children, to withstand such things as malaria, typhoid, dengue fever and the #1 killer of children in 3rd world countries, diarrhea. How can you stay healthy without good, nutritional food? How about now, after the earthquake when food is scarce?
RMI is able to help. We have just obtained several hundred cases of food aid! This food is undesignated and RMI would like to see it be used for needy, earthquake affected families. Each case contains 216 meals which would provide 1 hot, nourishing meal a day for a family of 6 for a whole month! These nutritious meals contain all of the nutrients and vitamins a child needs to grow strong and healthy, and has been scientifically created to help those suffering from scabies, malnutrition and other life threatening illnesses.
RMI would like to be able to distribute this food beginning the 1st week of September. However, we need help to cover our costs of shipping, customs, distribution, etc.! We need your help to make this possible. Each case is $25. (That is less than .12 cents a meal!) This is a great project with which to challenge your family, prayer group, Bible study, your deacons, pastoral staff, Sunday School class or church. How about your workplace? Can you get your favorite restaurant to put out a collection jar? Do you spend that much on Starbucks coffee in a month? How about feeding an entire family for a month instead? Your local Christian school can take on this challenge…kids helping to feed other kids!
Your contribution will enable RMI to provide this food to needy refugees in earthquake ravaged areas.
If you are a member of an RMI Sister Church, your church can provide food specifically for your own Haiti Sister Church district in lots of 50 cases for only $1,250. This is an enormous, tangible ministry into your Sister Church’s life, one that demonstrates that you know they are hurting and you are sending help that meets them where they are.
