Society of St. Andrew offers Alternative Christmas
10/27/2011
While you and your family celebrate the joyous Christmas season, many Americans will experience first-hand the reality of hunger and poverty in our land of abundance. This Christmas, you can give them hope by the simple act of honoring your loved ones with a gift donation to feed the hungry.
Each $12 gift donation to the Society of St. Andrew provides about 600 servings of fresh, nutritious food to America's hungry families. It's a sincere and loving way to feed the hungry and honor special people in your life. Each person you so honor will receive our exclusive Christmas Gift Donation Card announcing your generous gift in their name.
A free Advent devotional guide, Passing the Peace, has also been developed for your use.
The Society of St. Andrew is a national nonprofit hunger-relief ministry that rescues about 25 million pounds of fresh, nutritious, excess produce each year that would otherwise go to waste for various marketing reasons. This food is then distributed to critical feeding agencies across the country at no cost to the agencies or the hungry people they serve. It is a United Methodist General Advance Special (#801600).
