Volunteers also help load the boxes into vehicles as churches, community groups, and non-profits who have all pre-registered for the boxes line up to pick up their order. *Due to COVID, volunteers will be limited, and social distancing will be in place. Masks will be mandatory.

For the first time at Easter, Mountaire is also packing 1,100 meal boxes in North Carolina as we partner with churches there to find meet the community needs.
