We have been wanting to serve with Rise Against Hunger, a meal-packing non-profit, for quite some time and Jason, Danielle and Ed were finally given the opportunity to do so this morning. As part of a much larger team of volunteers, they were able to pack over 10,000 meals for those in need around the world. Rise Against Hunger is an international hunger relief organization that distributes food and life-changing aid to the world’s most vulnerable, mobilizing the necessary resources to end hunger by 2030. An extraordinary organization doing incredible work with tangible outputs and measurable results. If you would like to learn more about RAH, and how you can volunteer or even organize a meal-packing effort, please visit their website at https://www.riseagainsthunger.org/
