Book a team building event that really makes a difference.
At a rice packing event, our events coordinator will bring all the ingredients for our high nutrition rice packs. Working in teams, your employees will pack the ingredients into bags, seal them and box them. There’s always a good measure of friendly competition and the joy of banging our giant gong for every 100 meals packed!
But we also want to be sure your team know why they’re packing these meals, and who they’re for. Our rice packing days always include a presentation, often from team members who have been out to our projects and can share first hand experience of the difference these meals make on the ground.

So why would we pack these meals?
It’s simple really. Across the world, 733 million people go hungry every day. In the parts of the world where we deliver rice packs, food is often too expensive or simply not available. Climate change affects crop growth and abundance, and extreme poverty leaves families struggling to put even one meal on the table.
But these rice meals aren’t just about feeding children today. We want to eradicate food poverty for the next generation.
- Our rice meals are delivered to our partners in schools, free of charge. The meals mean children are motivated to come to school, and their parents are motivated to send them. It may be the only meal they eat that day.
- The high-nutrition content feeds children’s brains and bodies, making sure they have the energy to learn. The education they receive is vital in breaking the poverty cycle.
- By tackling hunger in this way, we’re providing stability to deprived families. This lays the foundations for sustainable development of food production and economic growth within their communities.
The value of employee engagement
Recent research in CSR trends is clear. The importance of genuine CSR achievements is matched by an increasing desire in employees to be a part of what their company does. Employees want to be world changers, and they’re looking to their employers for opportunities.
That’s why rice packing events are perfect for businesses who care about their teams and care about impactful CSR.
All shapes and sizes
Our events can be shaped around your needs. We can run a half day with your team on your premises, welcome you into our warehouse for a tour, a presentation and food packing, contribute an hour to your conference day or even support your networking day with a lunchtime rice pack.
