7 simple ways to feed kids

There are many ways to help turn hunger into hope — and it starts with you. Here are a few ways that you can get involved with FMSC: 

1. Volunteer

When you volunteer at FMSC, you turn hunger into hope with your own two hands. You’ll hand-pack rice, soy, dried vegetables, and a nutritionally complete blend of vitamins and minerals into bags which are then sealed, boxed, placed on pallets and shipped to our incredible partners working hard to reaching hungrychildren around the world.

We have opportunities to step up all across the U.S. — either at one of our permanent sites or at a MobilePack™ event. Find a volunteer opportunity near you 

2. Join Something Greater™

We can only pack what we can fund — but because each meal costs just 29 cents, you can make a huge difference! You can join Something Greater by starting a recurring gift of any amount. Join Something Greater now 

3. Shop with purpose

FMSC MarketPlace™ purchases items from artisans who live and work in communities where FMSC meals are served. Every FMSC MarketPlace purchase provides fair wages to artisans, and sales fund even more meals for hungry kids around the world. You can see what our artisan partners create at fmscmarketplace.org or in-store at any of our permanent packing sites.
