    The charity fulfills its mission by feeding thousands of families each month.

    Note

    The double-l spelling is the American one, though the senses themselves belong to all of English. Nearly every sense takes an object: a charity fulfills its mission, a student fulfills a requirement, and a warehouse fulfills orders, commerce's word for packing and shipping goods. The old meaning of filling something to capacity is archaic, so a line like she fulfills the cup reads as period writing.
