Move For Hunger

Recap: Fighting Hunger at WERC's Global Workforce Symposium The meal kits packed at the event, with the generous support of Atlas and The Paxton Companies, were delivered directly to the Changing Lives Food Pantry at Victory Christian Ministries International in Maryland. Marcia, a staff member at the food pantry, serves with a purpose deeply rooted in personal experience. "Back in Saint Mary’s County, I thought we were going to lose our home," she recalls. "I was working, but it was hard to provide food for my daughters." Supported by her church community during that difficult time, Marcia made a vow: if she could help others, she would never turn them away. Thanks to events like this, the Changing Lives team can serve even more families across the DMV community. "This food isn’t just for us; it’s reaching other pantries in the area," she says gratefully. Thank you, Atlas and Paxton, for making this impact possible.
