Impact Lives Haiti Resources

Impact Lives is a non-profit, non-religious affiliated group, located in Minnesota that not only feeds children and families but also helps Impact Lives by building wells, providing education and meeting basic needs of the community.  This event is a hands-on way for our children to see how they can make a difference.  This year's destination for our meals and contributions will be Haiti.  This event will buddy classes to pack meals in one hour shifts.  Students will not only pack meals together on this day but have a chance to spend much of the day with their student buddies including lunch/recess and a specialist class together.  At the end of the day there will be an assembly presenting how many meals we've packed, how much money we've raised, as well as a chance for students to talk about their experiences.
