GAM Helps Feed My Starving Children

GAM employees volunteered time on October 1 to help out the Feed My Starving Children organization.  Feed My Starving Children strives to eliminate starvation by shipping meals to starving children in nearly 70 countries around the world.

The GAM team helped to fill and pack meals (called MannaPacks) that are specifically formulated for malnourished children.  MannaPacks are a nutritious mixture of vitamins, vegetables, soy (protein), and rice.  This food is easy and safe to transport, and very simple to make with boiling water.

GAM was able to help pack around 60 boxes which is enough to feed 37 children for an entire year.  This particular shipment of food that GAM helped to pack is going to be delivered to children in Djibouti, Africa.  "We at GAM feel that giving back is very important, especially to those in need," said Gary Michalek, CEO of GAM, "Helping others become more successful is the reason why we exist."
