Feed My Starving Children MobilePack Events


A Texas attorney and former business owner, Jeff Rutledge represents clients in IT contract negotiation and intellectual property (IP) matters. He formerly served as owner and productions director for Paradigm Research, a publishing and research firm. Attorney Jeff Rutledge supports charitable organizations such as Feed My Starving Children, a Christian non-profit that provides hunger relief in more than 70 countries worldwide. 

To fulfill its mission of delivering nutritious meals where they are needed most, FMSC ships hand-packed meals to distribution partners around the world. This is accomplished through the organization of MobilePacks, which are events hosted by a church, school, business, or community groups. 

Events require a group of at least 500 volunteers who pack a minimum of 100,000 meals, all of which contain essential nutrients that support child development, combat malnutrition, and facilitate recovery from illness. FMSC works with local distribution partners to ensure that 99.6 percent of its packed meals reach their intended recipients. In 2015 alone, more than 1 million volunteers helped FMSC produce nearly 273 million meals.
