So\, what does a meal packaging event actually look like?

\n\n

The Outreach Program brings in all of the equipment\, ingredients\, and supplies and sets up meal packaging lines. Teams work assembly-line style to measure ingredients\, fill and seal packages\, label them\, and box the finished meals. There&rsquo\;s music\, some friendly competition\, and a whole lot of teamwork as we work toward our meal goal!

\n\n

Organizations can put together a volunteer team\, share the opportunity with staff or others who may want to participate\, or support United for Hunger through a sponsorship or donation. At just $0.35 per meal\, every contribution helps us package more meals for Otsego County.

\n\n

It&rsquo\;s a different spin on Day of Caring\, but the heart behind it is the same: bringing people together to make a meaningful difference in our community.
