🍲 From Vision to Action | Youth Feed the Hungry Project!

Saturday, November 21 | The Melting Pot

What happens when our youth dream up a way to make a difference and then put their hearts into making it happen?

Their vision begins becoming reality! πŸ₯³

Throughout the 2025–26 program year, our HVUUC Youth worked to raise funds to help feed those experiencing hunger in our community. Their vision? To bring in a food truck that could provide meals to our unhoused and food-insecure neighbors. And now, we're so excited to see that vision coming to fruition!

On Saturday, November 21, The Melting Pot will host its monthly Community Health & Wellness Resource Fair, and we're thrilled to bring our Youth Group's vision into this beautiful community effort!

Funds raised by our youth will go toward providing a food truck, hosted in The Melting Pot's parking lot following the morning event. This will offer brunch and lunch to community members who may not have been able to attend the earlier meal service.

Here's how you can help! πŸ’œ

● Volunteer: Youth and families are encouraged to lend a hand during the morning event, the food truck service, or both! Please use the November 21 Volunteer Sign-Up page here so The Melting Pot can coordinate volunteers and community needs.

● Help us find a food truck: We're still working diligently to secure a food truck for the day! If you have suggestions, connections, or time to help make a few calls, we'd love your support. Email dre@hvuuc.org.

What a beautiful example of our youth turning compassion into action and showing us what happens when community comes together around a shared vision!
