pack the house
At Cornerstone University we unite students, families, and community partners to Pack 50,000+ nutritious meals with IDES.org—combining faith, service, and fun to combat hunger. Through our 4th Annual Pack the Gym celebration on November 19 and hands-on packing event on November 23, we aim to mobilize 300+ volunteers, strengthen local and global partnerships, and deliver life-changing support to ministries in Honduras. Together we transform an evening of community and celebration into hope and sustenance for our neighbors in need.
Pack the Gym / Pack the Meals unites Cornerstone University, IDES.org, and the West Michigan community for two impact-driven days:
November 19 — Pack the Gym: Mol Arena doubleheader (CU Men’s & Women’s basketball), music, family activities with Bob Wells, and community celebration to raise awareness and support.
November 23 — Pack the Meals: Volunteer meal-packing at the Hansen Center (4–6 PM) to assemble 50,000+ meals, requiring 300+ volunteers; meals will be shipped to partner ministries in Honduras.
Goals and Outcomes:
Assemble and ship 50,000+ meals to support partner ministries in Honduras.
Engage 300+ volunteers across campus and community.
Strengthen relationships between CU, IDES.org, local partners, and global ministries.
Inspire ongoing service and awareness of global food insecurity.
Raise $7000 for the meal pack and program
