Every day in Houston, over 100,000 preschool-aged children wonder when they will eat again.
Thanks to generous organizations and people like you, over 10,000 hungry children receive healthy, hand-delivered lunches every weekday. The meals you make possible unlock the door to critical brain development and opportunities that last a lifetime.
Speaking of open doors, this year, Kids’ Meals’ community celebrated the grand opening of the new Kids’ Meals ExxonMobil Campus. With this exciting milestone comes the extraordinary goal to serve 26,000 preschool-aged children each weekday by 2031.
Today, your generosity will help us take another step toward that goal.
You are the heart of this mission. Together, we are filling tummies and equipping families to break the cycle of poverty.
So please, enjoy today’s luncheon, bid on fun auction items, and give generously, knowing that every $2 makes and delivers a meal to a hungry child.
Special thanks to all our committee members, board members, sponsors, volunteers, and staff who have worked tirelessly to bring this meaningful event to life.
Every meal you make possible fills a child with hope.
With gratitude,
