Moseley Collins Law Firm sponsoring 150,000 Meals at 15th Annual Placer Feed My Starving Children MobilePack

Rocklin, Calif. – Thousands of volunteers are expected to pack 400,000 meals for malnourished children around the world this October as part of the 15th annual Placer Feed My Starving Children MobilePack.

The MobilePack's biggest supporter, the Moseley Collins Law Firm, is sponsoring 150,000 meals this year – bringing its 8-year total to 1 million meals sponsored.

"Every day, the world loses so many children to starvation," said Moseley Collins, a local attorney and pastor who has been sponsoring meals since 2016. "It is our responsibility to do all we can to alleviate the suffering. We are honored to partner with local volunteers to deliver life-saving meals and make a real difference in the fight against hunger."

The all-volunteer group organizing the MobilePack is currently seeking additional sponsorships to help pay for all the meals that will be packed this year. Sponsorship packages are available at this link.
