The Bobby Bones Show has joined efforts with non-profit group TEEMHaiti and international hunger relief organization Numana to create “30 Abes,” a special campaign and food packaging event in Nashville benefiting hunger relief in Haiti. On Saturday, Sept. 28, 2013, thousands of volunteers will gather at Nashville Municipal Auditorium with the goal to package 500,000 meals to send to the Maison Des Enfants De Dieu orphanage in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
The event will also benefit Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee in Nashville, as packaging volunteers will be encouraged to bring canned and boxed-food donations.
