WOW Partners for Hunger Relief with Belmont University

EMI Christian Music Group, Provident Music Group and Word Entertainment have long collaborated in the marketing and distribution of WOW compilation projects. This year the companies extend their alliance through a charitable event called “WOW Shares.”  On December 10 the collective staff of the three companies, together with students from Belmont University, will sponsor a “food packaging event” benefitting non-profit hunger-relief organization, Feed My Starving Children (FMSC). Minnesota-based FMSC delivers food around the world to malnourished children in schools, orphanages, refugee camps and hospitals. (http://www.fmsc.org)

Hundreds of employees from each of the three companies, along with Belmont University employees and students, have signed up to work in shifts packing specially formulated meals in assembly-line fashion. Each FMSC meal provides the key nutrients a child needs to survive and thrive.

Packing sessions, each beginning with a 10 minute overview of FMSC’s work around the world, will take place at the following times on Thursday, December 10 in the Curb Event Center on Belmont’s Campus:
          
Packing Session No. 1:      10:00 a.m. -  12:00 p.m.
