Ever since hearing about the Foundation, I have loved its mission and also the dedicated individuals that are involved. Seeing and hearing firsthand what lack of nutrition can do a child’s concentration and learning abilities and also the amount of children in need is a driving factor.

PACKING EVENTS

By providing meals for hungry children to take home on the weekends through our Buddy Box program, Family Mentor Foundation helps schools to move beyond academic support to also meet the children’s physical and emotional needs. These Buddy Boxes are packed and filled by volunteers at our community or corporate packing events.

These packing event bring together members of the community or company employees to fill and organize the Buddy Boxes in our warehouse. This FUN and interactive experience allows your participants to give back in a hands-on, meaningful community-building activity. All ages welcome, and there is a job for every ability level!

We need your help to reach more kids!

I enjoyed hearing about how the boxes that we packed would help kids across the city. I liked that there were jobs for everyone and it kept us busy and moving!
