(MENAFN- PRLog) Attendees To 89th Annual Meeting To Partner With The Rise Against Hunger Organization IMUA To Rise Against Hunger NEW YORK - Feb. 21, 2019 - PRLog -- The Inland Marine Underwriters Association (IMUA) announced that this year's 89 thAnnual Meeting will include an afternoon devoted to The Rise Against Hunger project. IMUA's 2019 Annual Meeting will be held in Leesburg, VA at the Lansdowne Resort & Spa, May 19-22, 2019. It includes two days of educational opportunities for both seasoned and newer underwriters and brokers who specialize in inland marine coverage.
Attendees who elect to volunteer for the Rise Against Hunger project during Monday afternoon's recreational activities will participate in a meal packaging assembly-line of highly nutritious dehydrated meals made up of rice, soy, vegetables and 23 essential vitamins and minerals. Rise for Hunger estimates that a group of 40-50 volunteers can package more than 10,000 meals in just two hours.
In making the announcement Kevin O'Brien, IMUA President & CEO, said, "This year we have added this very special event to our IMUA Annual Meeting schedule. Attendees to our Annual Meeting can volunteer their time to help the Rise Against Hunger organization in their efforts to feed those in need."
According to Rise Against Hunger, "The organization's approach to ending hunger centers on mobilizing a global network of hunger champions. Rise Against Hunger meal packaging volunteers produce millions of nutritious meals annually that are then distributed to partners in countries around the world. Those partners are best able to address the causes and effects of hunger based on their local presence and expertise. Through our thorough monitoring and evaluation process, we ensure the meals distributed by those partners are used as a tool to change lives by promoting education, improving students' health and nutrition, addressing gender inequalities, stimulating economic growth and fighting child labor."
