Rise Against Hunger (RAH) is a multi-generational annual meal packing event held at SPUMC with the help of an RAH event coordinator. We held our inaugural event in 2018 by packing 15,000 meals, and we have packed 20,000 at our last events, even all through the pandemic. At our 2025 meal packing event we packed 22,000 meals, which shipped to Burundi.
One of the best and most joyful things about Rise Against Hunger is that ANYONE — kids, teens, families, couples, older adults — can all participate meaningfully side-by-side. It’s fun and it makes a difference.
