Giving back is core to who we are at Crystal D, and every year our Memory Makers volunteer to pack nutritious meals for hungry people around the world. This month, we worked together to support those in need in Haiti.
Our employees look forward to this annual event at the Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) facility in Eagan, Minnesota. The goal was to pack one box per person, and in true Crystal D fashion, we went above and beyond … and more than doubled that amount!
Together, as a team of 77 volunteers, this year we packed 169 boxes, which equates to 36,504 meals — enough to feed 100 children for a year.
