Outreach Event
Packaging Meals for Vulnerable People Around the World
Outreach and WaterBrick
An Outreach food packaging event is a compelling and impactful way to effect change in your community and beyond. This joint effort brings together friends, families, co-workers and organizations who are looking for ways to bring about positive change within their own communities. With an Outreach/WaterBrick meal packaging event, volunteers team up for a one-day event to produce dried, non-perishable meals that are packaged for delivery in WaterBrick containers.
