The freeze on U.S. foreign aid (including ) will significantly impact FMSC & they are expecting a surge in requests for food with this loss of support. FANOGCS help FMSC stand in the gap by volunteering to help pack meals to be distributed to countries stricken by poverty & natural calamities.
Thank you all friends & families in working together with some touch of humankindness.
