Did you know 1 in 6 americans suffer from hunger? Volunteers Needed to Help Pack 30,000 Meals and Feed the Hungry!!! For the second year, we have partnered with Feed 6 to pack 30,000 meals to feed the hungry. We cannot do this without committed volunteers like You! We need to recruit 150 volunteers to meet our goal - groups welcome.

Due to the expense incurred for organizing and planning a meaningful volunteer event, and to allow us to provide equipment and food packaging items, we request a $30 donation per employee participant.
