Meal Packing Event 2024
In March, LuHi’s Visscher Gym became a beacon of generosity and teamwork as we hosted our Meals from the Heart Meal Packing Event. This annual tradition, which unites students, faculty, staff, and local community partners, exemplifies our commitment to combating food insecurity right here in Long Island.
This year, our collective efforts resulted in an impressive 145,104 meals packed. These meals have since been distributed to local food pantries, making a difference in the lives of many families across our region. It’s truly a blessing to see our community come together in such a meaningful way, actively working to alleviate hunger and support those in need.
Since we began participating in this program, LuHi has proudly packed over 3 million meals. This milestone is a testament to the dedication and generosity of everyone involved—students, faculty, staff, and community. . Each year, our commitment to this cause grows stronger, and we look forward to continuing this tradition of service in the future.
As we reflect on this year’s event, we are filled with gratitude and pride. The success of the Meal Packing Event reaffirms our shared mission to serve our community and make a positive impact. We eagerly anticipate next year’s event, ready to pack even more meals and continue making a difference.
Thank you to everyone who participated and supported this event. Your servant hearts are truly making a difference!
