Hundreds of volunteers spent part of the weekend working to make a difference during the annual Feeding Children Everywhere event.

It was hosted by U.S. Hunger, Compassionate DFW, the East Plano Islamic Center and the Richardson Interfaith Alliance. The goal was to create 100,000 meals with the food sent to community food banks and pantries in North Texas including here in Richardson.

This was the eighth year for the food packing event.
