30K Meals Packaged for Memphis Families | Memphis Tigers Basketball News
Description
Thirty thousand nonperishable food items were packed in a powerful Day of Service in Memphis, creating red beans and rice meals to support local families. Organized by the Center for Student Learning and Volunteerism with Feed Your Funnel, the event brought together volunteers like Benjamin Burks, a University of Memphis alum who returned to give back after witnessing firsthand the city’s struggles with food insecurity and homelessness. Coordinator Rosa Perez emphasized how these collective efforts bridge community gaps and surprise beneficiaries—often neighbors or classmates—making every contribution deeply meaningful. Upcoming events will be posted on Volunteer Odyssey, inviting everyone to join and make a difference through shared action.
