The Rocky Mountain District has adopted Kids Against Hunger as their District Project for the 2013-2014 year. This nonprofit organization works internationally to battle hunger by providing food packages to children and families in over 60 countries. The food they send is a combination of white rice, soy, vegetables, and a vitamin and mineral powder, all of which works to combat hunger by providing essential nutrients. Packing events can be hosted to gather all the ingredients together so they can be shipped off to the children.
