“As a football team, it’s an opportunity to give back, to help others,” he said, later adding, “There’s nothing like giving back. There’s nothing like being involved.”
Reed Hall, a junior who plays running back, was one of the players helping pack food.
“I know that we’re making a change for a lot of people. It’s great to be here with all of our guys having a good time doing the right thing,” he said.
The Lesotho Nutrition Initiative began in 2014 as a group of students and faculty from Wittenberg University concerned about the severe childhood malnutrition in the African nation, according to the organization’s website.
The group said that it holds numerous packing events throughout the year by partnering with schools, churches and other local organizations.
