Volunteer to Pack!
Every day, nearly 6,200 children die from hunger or hunger-related causes. Malnutri-tion is devastating to a child. It causes brain damage, tooth decay, stunted growth, bone loss, confusion, weakness, vision and digestion troubles, and eventually death. However, the meals you will pack at the Food 4others MobilePack are scientifically designed to reverse and prevent malnutri-tion, so a child not only survives but thrives!
These “MannaPack” meals are simple to make by only boiling water, and culturally acceptable worldwide. They consist of:
Rice, the most widely accepted grain around the world and also easily digestible
Extruded soy nuggets, providing maximum protein at lowest cost
Dehydrated vegetables
Vegetarian-based chicken flavoring containing 20 vitamins and minerals to give growing children the critical nutritional elements they need to thrive
And the best part? Each meal costs only 22 cents to produce!
During your two-hour shift at the Food
4others MobilePack, you will pack an
average of 216 meals ($48 worth of food) - feeding a child for about 7 months!
The Food 4others MobilePack 2016 is a 3-day event involving 1,300 volunteers in hand-packing 270,000 meals for severely malnourished children around the world. These meals are shipped to partners in over 70 countries and distributed by orphanages, clinics, schools, missions, and community feeding programs.
In assembly-line fashion, volunteers pour, weigh, seal, and pack as many meals as they can during their 2-hour packing shift. It’s a fun, fast-paced atmosphere while the packing process is simple enough for children as young as five to volunteer with an adult. Specific tasks are also available for individuals who require seating.
The Food 4others MobilePack is a great service opportunity for families, friends, co-workers, churches, and schools who are looking for a fun way to foster unity and teamwork while making a real difference in the lives of hungry children!
