Boys' Lacrosse Program Volunteers at Feed My Starving Children
The Loyola Academy boys’ lacrosse team displays sportsmanship on and off the field through service projects to help others in need. On January 28, about 70 Loyola players and a number of parents volunteered at Feed My Starving Children in Libertyville. Founded in 1987, Feed My Starving Children is a Christian non-profit that provides nutritionally complete meals specifically formulated for malnourished children.
Freshman through varsity players worked together to assemble potato D packs—consisting of a special combination of soy, vitamins and potatoes. The packs will be sent to children in over twelve countries around the world.
“The boys were great,” says Rambler parent Mrs. Martha Forsyth, who coordinated the event. “They broke up into teams and worked hard.”
In just two hours, Loyola lacrosse players were able to complete nearly 80,000 servings!
Allotting time for service projects helps to fulfill Loyola Academy’s mission to form women and men for meaningful lives of leadership and service.
Go Ramblers!
