Rise Against Hunger is an organization and movement with a goal to end world hunger by the year 2030. While they are not a faith-based organization, they actively seek to engage people of all faiths in their mission to end world hunger in our lifetime.
Rise Against Hunger tackles this goal one "Meal packing session" at a time. The goal of each 2-hour session is to package a minimum of 10,000 meals with the low cost of .29 per meal. Each package will feed 6 people (or 6 meals). Each package contains a vitamin pack, soy, vegetables, and rice.
Our next Meal packing event will be October 2nd, from 10:00 am to noon. Sign-ups are underway; we will need 50-60 volunteers. Children 5 years or older can join us; what a fabulous teaching event for children, experiencing the joy of giving to others!
