Lunches of Love is a ministry of Mission Firefly that provides healthy foods and snacks to feed insecure children in local schools. These children receive a bag of food each Friday to take home for the weekend. Many of these children receive free breakfast and lunch at school, but may not have adequate amounts of food during the weekend. If you would like to help by donating some food items or making a monetary donation, we would greatly appreciate it. Sponsorship of a student is also available for $25 a month.
