Over 16,000 children die from hunger related causes every day. The main cause of this problem is related to distributing food, not producing it. Haiti Under God is combating this problem by getting nutritious food on the plates of desperate children around the world.

We would like your help to feed the physical and spiritual hunger in children in Haiti. Join us at the Pack-a-Thon where churches, businesses, school groups, and civic clubs from our community will work together to make a huge difference.

1. RAISE FUNDS – Each meal costs just 27 cents to produce, ship and distribute to one child. One team of 17 people will produce around 4,000 meals or $1,100 worth of food during their shift. *We ask that each team work to cover these real costs.

2. FORM A TEAM – The food is assembled by teams of 17 people. Bring family and friends to serve along- side you. It takes 17 helpers to pack around 4,000 meals during a two hour packing session. Each volunteer will pack $65 worth of nutritious food or 240 servings. Put a whole team together or a partial team.

3. PACKAGE FOOD – You and your team will put together the very packets of food that your donations have made possible. The food will be shipped to at-risk children being cared for daily by Haiti Under God.

Why a Pack-A-Thon?
A Pack-A-Thon is a very organized and efficient way for people in America to make a hands- on difference in the lives of starving children overseas. The meals are designed to improve the health of malnourished children. Because they are packed by volunteers, we can produce healthy food inexpensively which results in more children being helped.

How do we register?
Please contact your Pack-a-Thon coordinator. Recruit team members and send your $1,100 to Haiti Under God P.O. Box 1010, Walterboro, SC 29488. You can also give $65 per person 
for partial teams. There is limited space for people that can volunteer only without making a financial contribution.
