October Community Meal Pack

More than 47 million Americans are food insecure—including thousands of families right here in Central Indiana. On Wednesday, October 28, from 6-8 p.m. you can roll up your sleeves and help scare away hunger. Join Pack Away Hunger for a boo-tifully impactful meal-packing event as we come together to assemble 15,000 nutritious meals for our neighbors. Skip the tricks and treat our community to something truly meaningful—because nothing is scarier than an empty plate for our friends and neighbors.

This is hands-on service at its best—an energetic assembly line of neighbors, coworkers, families, and friends working side by side for a shared purpose. The meals we’ll create are shelf-stable, heart-healthy, and packed with rice, vegetables, soy, and a vitamin/mineral blend designed to deliver complete nutrition. Think Rice-A-Roni—but with a healthy twist that’s anything but frightening.

Your support has real power. A few hours of your time or a small donation can mean food security for someone who might otherwise go hungry. Every $1 donated provides meals, and each volunteer helps turn compassion into action. Costumes are not required, but are highly encouraged, and you just might win some Pack Away Hunger swag if your costume is voted best of the pack!
