YF Neighborhood offers tangible ways to help neighbors in need. Our Something To Eat food packing program was created to help fight food insecurity by providing shelf-stable and nutritious meals to our local food pantries and communities.
City-Wide Meal Packing Event!
In February, hundreds of people came together to pack over 35,000 meals for food pantries across Kansas City. Our inaugural city-wide meal packing event was a huge success—bringing churches, families, schools, and businesses together to fight food insecurity in our community. We’re already looking ahead to 2026—stay tuned for dates and details on how you can be part of the next big event!
Food Distribution
Through a partnership with Harvesters, Something to Eatâ„¢ helps distribute fresh and shelf-stable foods to those in need every month.Â
"Here was an opportunity to do something great for the community, great for my grandson, and to do it together."
