Nora’sHomeMealPacking

Tuesday, September 21, 2021

4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

  • Student Center South - Midtown Room

This event is a service event in order to serve meals to a non-profit organization called “Nora’s Home”. Nora’s Home offers solid organ transplant patients and their families an affordable place to stay in the Texas Medical Center (TMC) where they can find support and share experiences with others, in the comfort of a home-like environment. The home is located 2 miles from the TMC and serves patients suffering from end-stage organ disease and facing the need for life-saving transplant surgery. Medical care often requires families to travel far from home and many patients awaiting transplant, undergoing surgery, or having follow-up care must stay in Houston for many months. We are fortunate enough to have gotten a chance to serve a meal at Nora’s Home. We are going to be preparing 35-40 meal boxes, where we together assemble the lunch and pack them into boxes. This event will also involve decorating meal bags and writing messages to the residents at Nora’s Home and wishing them well. It is a perfect opportunity to serve people. This event will allow us to give out food to our community partners and bring smiles to its resident’s faces.

Please use our form to register for the event (only 10 people allowed).
