The 2026 fundraiser and food drive competition "30 Days of Giving"
will take place from November 10 through December 10.
As we gather for meals with friends and family – on weekends, around holidays – too many children go without this simple comfort.
MREF’s 30 Days of Giving will raise awareness, inspire giving, and drive support for programs that ensure every child has access to nutritious food, not just on special occasions, but every day.
Rally your team and turn every donation into a win for kids in your community!
Sponsors can create a team, then invite friends and colleagues to join. The MREF is asking sponsors to provide monetary donations to support the nutrition needs of children across the globe. At the same time, the competition encourages team members to collect and donate food items to their local food bank or community organization. The team with the most donated items wins the competition!
Individuals are also invited to make a difference through monetary donations to the MREF.
