Homeless Bus

In 1992, Director, Mark Landgrebe, attended an Anthony Robbins seminar in Hawaii where he heard about a program that helped feed needy families on holidays, prompting him into action. At first, Mark delivered food only on holidays, but he quickly realized that holidays weren't enough and that these people were in need of assistance every day. Lacking the funds to aid them daily, Mark, and his wife Anna, settled on Saturday night deliveries and they have consistently visited these people weekly ever since, logging in over two decades of visits. Due to the ever-increasing number of people requiring his support, Homeless Bus is no longer able to support these individuals on their own. This is where you can help!

Pack Away Hunger

Pack Away Hunger's mission is to eliminate hunger in Indiana and around the world through nutritious food, education and service. Nutritious Food. In the United States, our Nutri-Plenty Meals help stock the shelves of local food banks and pantries. In developing nations, our meals are used to offset chronic malnutrition in children, and to nourish communities suffering from hunger. Education. Each year, through community partnerships and meal packing events, we educate more than 8,000 people about the toll hunger takes on individuals and communities. Our hope is that this information will inspire people to advocate and care for the hungry in their own communities and around the world. Service.

Appropriate for all ages and all abilities, our events allow diverse groups to serve together, build camaraderie and promote team building.
