Debby Hudson with Meals from the Heartland joins the Made in Iowa Podcast to share how the organization turns volunteer power into millions of meals for people in Iowa and around the world. Much of its work mirrors manufacturing: teams of 10 volunteers, carefully selected ingredients, efficient packaging lines, quality standards and distribution partnerships—including Convoy of Hope.

These meals are designed to do more than fill a belly. Their nutritional content helps children grow, learn and thrive—feeding minds as well as bodies. Debby also shares how listeners can join the mission by signing up for Meals from the Heartland’s volunteer events coming up in September.
