Stop Hunger Now
Are you looking for a way you can give to our Stop Hunger Now Meal Packaging Event? Do you eat out much? Would you be willing to give up eating out for a week, two weeks or even a month?

It only costs 25 cents to package one meal, so if you give up eating out for lunch for just one day and your lunch normally costs you $5.00 that’s enough money to feed 20 people.

Stay Tuned for more ways to get involved in our future Stop Hunger Now Meal Packaging Events.

  • More people die each year from hunger-related causes than AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined.
  • More than 25,000 people die of hunger-related causes every day.
  • One out of seven people in the developing world suffers from hunger.
  • Undernutrition is associated with more than half of all childhood deaths.
  • There is enough food in the world to feed everyone 4.3 pounds of food every day.

FAQ's ABOUT MEAL PACKAGING EVENT

What is the meal packaging program? 


Stop Hunger Now's meal packaging program is a volunteer-based effort through which volunteers package high protein, dehydrated meals for use in crisis situations and which provides a highly nutritious meal to support school feeding programs in schools and orphanages around the world.   



How does the program work? 

Stop Hunger Now’s meal packaging program program provides much needed meals to the world's hungry, and is a fun, hands-on volunteer opportunity for caring people of all ages in churches, civic organizations, and businesses. Through the program, our greatest dream is being realized—thousands of volunteers are learning the value of addressing hunger and are joining together in creating a world without hunger.  They are taking action by volunteering to package meals and helping spread the word. In addition to packaging thousands of meals for shipment, volunteers enjoy the warmth and fellowship that comes with working together for a good cause. Stop Hunger Now encourages all groups to consider volunteering on a regular basis as a commitment to ending world hunger.



Who can participate in the meal packaging program? 

People of all ages can participate.  Volunteers as young as 5 have packaged and as old as 95.  The assembly line process allows for many different jobs.  We can always find a job suited for everyone's needs.
