Rotarians:
You have an amazing opportunity to grow unity within our community and spread God’s love. For 24 hours, over a thousand people will gather to package meals to feed the hungry. This generosity event is called the “Rise Against Hunger Community Packathon”.
Every person matters. From noon July 18 til noon July 19, we will package 285,000 meals. That’s a lot of food - enough to fill an entire shipping container.
Please join me in this BOLD move to make a difference. We need YOUR Help:
- 1,200 Volunteers are needed to help package the meals
- Looking for ways FAMILIES can serve together? This is it ! ! ! Ages 5 to 100+ can participate in packaging.
- Do you know of teens in need of SERVICE HOURS? The is it ! ! ! A lock-in with police security is available from Midnight 7/18 til 6am 7/19 with supervised entertainment.
- And we need Sponsors to help pay for the raw materials.
- Each meal costs less than 44¢. That’s cheap to meat someone’s nutritional needs.
- If you do the math, packaging 285,000 meals will cost $125,000 in raw materials and supplies
- Individual contributions and Corporate Sponsorship will make this happen.
- Please see the file below for information about Corporate Sponsorship.
Please act now to Register. By volunteering and donating, you will be showing God’s love to His children in need.
Because we know you care so much for this cause, I’d also like to share with you some resources that you can distribute to friends & family via social media:
