Since 2010 YES! has been taking annual weeklong treks to Gleanings for the Hungry. Please click here to see pictures from our February 2012 trip.
Each winter adults serve at the Gleanings vegetable soup plant to mix dehydrated vegetables donated in bulk and mixed together to make a very nutritious soup mix. The soup is packaged in quart and gallon plastic bags which are then packed in barrels or boxes and sent world wide to those countries (including Haiti) that don’t have government programs to help the poor and needy. Missionary organizations use the soup to reach families, in feeding programs, schools and orphanages. Quilts are also made at Gleanings to send with the food. |
