Please support #NEFARGoodWorks by donating, volunteering for the food-packing event, or both. Donations are tax deductible.

Location: Morocco Shrine Auditorium, 3800 St Johns Bluff Rd. S., Jax

With 1 in 7 people (1 in 5 children) affected, hunger is a very real problem in Northeast Florida. Not limited to panhandlers or vagrants, it also affects families or individuals. Hunger robs people of not only physical and mental health, but also clarity, purpose and respect.

All donors and volunteers receive recognition – see below.

With 1 in 7 people and 1 in 5 children affected, hunger is a very real problem in Northeast Florida. Not limited to panhandlers or vagrants, it often flies under the radar, showing up in families or individuals who do not fit what Americans might imagine from films or pictures in National Geographic.
