About the Event

Impacting lives one meal at a time.

Our Food Packing Event is April  6th, 2024!!

We would be delighted to have you at Rhema Christian School, conveniently located at 29 County Road 4, Peterborough, ON K9L 1B8, for this community event.

REGISTER TODAY!

We have the opportunity and challenge to package 50,000 highly nutritious meals for people struggling with hunger around the world and right here in our neighbourhood. This marks our 8th annual event as we work towards our objective of packaging one million meals for those in need.

The goal of this event is to engage the people of Peterborough to make a difference in the lives of others. In order to do this, we will provide and volunteer to package One Million Meals using Kids Against Hunger Canada’s model of food packaging. We encourage individuals from diverse social, religious, sports, academic, business, and municipal backgrounds to come together and form teams that will participate in a friendly competition to assemble as many meals as possible during a 75-minute shift.

This event promises to be an enjoyable, energetic, and meaningful opportunity for the people of Peterborough to contribute positively to the lives of others! Will you join us in seizing this outstanding opportunity to create a significant impact on the lives of those in need?

To cover the expenses of the food, we will need everyone’s support in raising the necessary funds. For the packaging of 50,000 meals, we suggest a donation of $65, or any contribution you can make towards covering the food costs. Come be a part of the excitement and REGISTER TODAY.
