Help Vale Church "Stop Hunger Now"

Vale Church has a BIG GOAL: On February 24, we will be packaging 43,000 meals to help feed hungry children and families around the world. Can we do it? With your help, YES!


The food packaging event is part of Vale Church’s ongoing partnership with the global anti-hunger organization STOP Hunger Now (www.stophungernow.org). Anyone who has participated in previous events will tell you that it is truly a rewarding and fun experience.


So, please join us! The meal packaging event will be held at our church (11528 Vale Road, Oakton) on Sunday, February 24 and will be organized into two sessions: 12:00-2:30pm and 3:00-5:30pm.

Kids ages 8 and up and accompanied by a parent are welcome to participate.

NOTE: The meals were purchased from the proceeds of Vale Church’s annual Christmas tree sale—so if you purchased a tree from us, all the more reason to join and help see your purchase put to good use!
