Carolina Mountain Sales Supports Kids Against Hunger

On February 11th, Carolina Mountain Sales is sponsoring a packing session for Kids Against Hunger, whereby, we will be a pilot to see how much money we can raise to support our session and future sessions.   We would like to make 2012 the best year ever for feeding hungry children.

Interesting facts:

  • Approximately one third of the meals we pack, stay in our area feeding kids that will not eat     from Friday until they return to school on Monday, unless one of the KAH meals is put in their back pack on Friday.  
  • The other meals are sent to areas of need around the world
  • Each packing session’s  materials cost approximately $1250 –  $2000
  • Every day 40,000 kids die around the world due to starvation.
  • A group of 18-24 can typically package about 5,000 – 8,000 meals in one 2.5 hour session. At a cost of only 25 cents per meal.
  • All donations are Tax deductible

If you would like to support this cause, KAH will be thrilled with a donation from $1 to $1mm dollars.   Please send a check written to Kids Against Hunger prior to February 9th, to Carolina Mountain Sales, 1550 Hendersonville Road, Suite 210,  Asheville, NC 28803

Thank you in advance for any consideration.
