About this Article

Rich Direnzo of Lombard is a 'super volunteer' at Feed My Starving Children in Schaumburg, helping to pack meals for malnourished kids around the globe.  "This seemed like a much more needed organization, this was immediate, if these people aren't fed today, they could be dead tomorrow, and that's what kind of hit me," Direnzo said.
