Experience Poverty in a Role-Playing Simulation Workshop

4-7 PM SUNDAY, OCT 1 AT FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH, 64 W. CHOCOLATE AVENUE, HERSHEY

We know we’re called to help those in poverty, but it can be difficult to know what to do. How can we understand what it’s like to be poor? Participating in Poverty Simulation is a great first step.

First United Methodist Church Hershey is partnering with Tri-County Community Action to offer Poverty Simulation, a true-to-life role-playing experience where you can learn first-hand the challenges, decisions, and life of someone in poverty. Groups will be faced with daily decisions ranging from how to get the kids to school on time, find or maintain employment, visit the assistance office or church, pay your bills, and keep a roof over your head…all in the span of a few hours. 

Register online by Sept 24 to participate in this thought-provoking, immersive experience. It’s FREE and recommended for adults and youth.
