Convoy of Hope is actively seeking businesses, churches and civic organizations to combat world hunger in a tangible way by sponsoring food-packing events at its World Distribution Center in Springfield, Mo.

On a recent Tuesday, Springfield-based Therapy Support Inc., became the first to support this new initiative by recruiting 44 of its employees to help package the beans and rice it purchased for Convoy of Hope’s feeding initiatives.

“We believe Therapy Support is the first of many local businesses that will view Convoy of Hope as an ideal way to promote team-building among their employees while providing tangible help for hungry people around the world,” says Jeff Roman, corporate relations director for Convoy of Hope.

Convoy of Hope is currently feeding more than 100,000 children in seven countries. The meals packed by Therapy Support volunteers are bound for Convoy of Hope’s feeding initiatives in Central America and the Philippines.
