Volunteers with Bank of America on Tuesday rolled up their sleeves to fight food insecurity right here in Indiana.
It’s all part of the Million Meal Initiative.
Fifty volunteers gathered at an office near 96th Street and College Avenue to pack more than 5,000 casserole meals to feed hungry families. The co-founder of million meals tells us that food insecurity in Indiana is higher than the national average.
Nancy Hintz, executive director and co-founder of the Million Meal Movement, said, “This is what makes this kind of work so valuable to the state of Indiana, everyone gets involved.”
In Indiana alone, 1 million people – including 1 in 5 children – don’t know where they’ll get their next meal.
