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!
Gather your friends and family and join us for the Something To Eat™ KC Food Packing Event on February 28th! Last year, we packed over 35,000 meals for food pantries across Kansas City. This year, we are partnering with Harvesters and want to go even bigger to fight food insecurity in our community. Learn more below and join us at this fun, impactful event! All Ages!
Through a partnership with Harvesters, Something to Eat™ provides fresh and shelf-stable food to neighbors in Kansas City, Kansas. Each month, volunteers help sort, pack, and distribute food for more than 350 households facing food insecurity. The event happens on the second Wednesday of every month from 1:00–4:15 p.m. at the Franklin Center in Kansas City, KS.
This is a hands-on volunteer opportunity for all ages — families, small groups, and individuals are welcome. Our Youthfront Grandparent Ministry plays a key role in serving alongside us each month. Come help fight hunger and strengthen community through presence and service.
