Want to Host an Event?

We would love to partner with you to host a meal packaging event. Reach out to our home office to schedule your event today!

What is a meal packaging event?

The Outreach Program will come to your location and help you set up an assembly -line style event.  We will engage your group in the process of packaging the dry ingredients of one, or more, of our ten delicious meal varieties.  An assembly line is made by placing two 8 foot tables end-to-end, then placing all of the necessary ingredients, equipment and supplies to create the line. Ten to twelve volunteers gather around each line and assemble the meals in one lean manufacturing process. 

 

The benefits of packaging meals are endless. 

  • Build local community engagement
  • Advocacy through hands-on experience
  • Empowering people of all ages to impact global hunger through volunteer opportunities
  • Working to end hunger by 2030
  • Great Corporate Social Responsibility Event for our corporate partners
  • Team building through serving
  • Fund raising opportunity
  • Attract new members

A large meal packaging event may not be right for every organization, and that’s ok! We also have DIY Kits for small groups that want to package meals on their own time. We have several DIY kits that can accommodate between 10 to 50 volunteers. Kits come with all the necessary ingredients, packing supplies, packing equipment, and virtual training. We can even help you find a program where you can donate your completed meals.
