Orlando Honors 9/11 with 210K Meals | Orlando News

Published 2 weeks ago
Description

Orlando came together in a powerful display of community spirit as it marked 25 years since 9/11 with the largest meal-packing event in Central Florida’s history—210,000 healthy, non-perishable meals packed by volunteers from top local companies and foundations. This first-ever Orlando-hosted 9/11 Day of Service turned remembrance into action, honoring the post-9/11 ethos of mutual aid while tackling real hunger needs during Hunger Action Month. With one in seven adults and one in five children in the region facing food insecurity, these meals headed straight to Second Harvest Food Bank. Backed by major sponsors like Comcast, Delta, Duke Energy, and Target, the event began with solemn reflection and patriotic resolve—proving that tragedy can inspire lasting, tangible good.
