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. For the past two Rotary years, we have hosted a Meal packaging event at Rise Against Hunger. Each event had close to 100 Rotarians from up to 10 separate clubs participating in these events. At our last event, we packaged more than 24,000 meals in less than three hours! These meals went to help refugees at the Colombia border, where thousands of refugees flee from Venezuela daily. We need your help: 1. We need volunteers to package the meals 2. We need money to pay for this. The cost per meal is about 30 cents. Can your club afford $500-$1,000 for this Project? West U and University Area Rotary Clubs are committed to this project.
Contact me with any questions. Jack Wallace, Rotary Club of West U (713) 705-8661 |
