Optomi Dallas Volunteers at Feed My Starving Children

In just a few short hours, the Dallas team made a BIG difference volunteering at Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) for their Q1 giving back day.

Many children right here in the U.S. don’t know if there will be food in the fridge when they get home from school, so we created the Opt2give program to address this hunger epidemic. With each Optomi consultant hired, we provide a food-insecure child a weekend bag of meals. Giving back has always been at the center of our core values and culture. We could not be more aligned with Feed My Starving Children’s mission.

According to FMSC, millions of kids are lost to preventable illnesses each year. However, hunger still causes about half of the deaths in children younger than 5 years old. FMSC is dedicated to seeing every child whole in body and spirit, working with food distribution partners that partner with communities long-term. The meals packed for hungry little bellies were specifically chosen to combat malnutrition and provide substantial nourishment.

The team packed 98 boxes of nutritional meals for children around the world. In just under 2 hours, we provided 21,268 meals for kids in need. This will feed 57 kids for a whole year!

At Feed My Starving Children, all their work is fueled by core values, some including: compassion, authenticity, and collaboration. Optomi is proud to uphold our own set of core values that heavily align with FMSC’s mission. Through volunteering at FMSC, we impacted hundreds of kids in just two hours. Imagine the impact several hours or days would have.

We look forward to giving back even more throughout the entire year.
