Meal Packaging - Kids Against Hunger was a Huge Success
Our club participated in a multi club project, in partnership with Kids Against Hunger this past weekend. Over 100 Rotarians, their families, and friends packaged a total of 25,000 nutritious meals to be distributed to the food insecure population in our local community. The project was funded by our Service Fund, matched by the Rotary International Foundation via Rotary district funds. Thank you to those who volunteered and those who supported our Service Fund. We are making a difference in our immediate community. Here are some photos of dedicated Rotarians who staffed the assembly line with precision in packaging the meals.
