Teams of volunteers will join Food For The Poor in June to pack 100,000 life saving meals for hungry children in Haiti. Businesses, church groups and individuals are invited to Join The Pack, a mobile food-packing event.

The event is being held in partnership with Feed My Starving Children, a Christian nonprofit organization that sends prepackaged meals to more than 70 countries.

On the day of the event, the church will be transformed into a giant assembly line with a fun, high energy environment. Volunteers donning hairnets and gloves will fill plastic bags with cups of white rice and soy pellets, scoops of freeze-dried vegetables and chicken flavoring that contains all the essential vitamins and nutrients a malnourished child needs to survive. Once prepared with boiling water, each MannaPack provides six generous servings of nutritious food.
