Meals of Hope - Food Packing
What happens when
service-minded people come together? Lives are changed! We partnered with 5 other clubs last year for

Our members were not very responsive, only 5 volunteered, and asked why we could not do our
own in Spalding county, ensuring all the food helped our community. We listened and responded.
