Good Stuff in TEC: Virginia

Volunteers package food to combat world hunger.

Nearly 150 people gathered inside the Grace Episcopal Church parish hall in Berryville Saturday to stop world hunger.

The volunteers, who hailed from local churches, Rotary clubs, and civic organizations, formed an assembly line and packaged bags of rice and soy protein, which will be shipped to some of the world’s poorest countries.
