Indianapolis, Ind. - Indiana State Troopers are now a little better equipped to provide assistance when dealing with people in need, thanks to the Million Meal Movement.

The Million Meal Movement provided more than 300 meal packets to the state police that contain enough nutrients to feed a family of four. The packets will be made available to troopers throughout the state to carry in their patrol car.

In 2007, Dan and Nancy Hintz began Million Meal Movement with a two-fold vision: feeding the hungry and teaching the importance of volunteerism. As Million Meal Movement has grown, they have carried out this vision by empowering volunteers of all ages to make a tangible impact.

“We founded the organization because we wanted to be able to offer a volunteer experience to children that their parents would enjoy just as much,” said Nancy Hintz.

To date this movement has packaged more than 28,800,406 meals.
